Some services unavailable 16 - 17 November | myIR, gateway services and our self-service phone line will not be available from 3pm Saturday 16 November to 9am Sunday 17 November while we do planned system testing. This will not affect any tax entitlements or payments scheduled during this time.

It’s important to provide the right address when applying for an IRD number.

When applying for a non-individual's IRD number either online or using the IR596, you need to provide the street address of the place of business (question 5 on the IR596). This should be the physical location of the business, not the director’s residential address or the tax agent’s or any other intermediary’s street address.

When providing the postal address (question 6 on the IR596), this should be the postal address for the business and not the address of the tax agent or any other intermediary.

This allows us to correctly update the applicant’s address details into our system.
