| Subject: | FRCA Payroll Tax Bracket and New Tax Implementation |
| Summary: | Bula Team, We need to implement new Tax Bracket Changes in our payroll to be effective from 1st of August, 2017 which has been gazetted by Fiji Government on 18th of July, 2017. Below are changes that need to come in effect: - Tax Threshold Increases to $30,000 from 1st of August, 2017. The Tax Bracket is to be treated in a new period(Period 1 being Jan-July, 2017 & Period 2 being Aug-Dec, 2017). This means employees will get two Tax Certificate this year. Payroll Computation for Period 2 should not look at pay's processed in Period 1
- ECAL Tax - New Tax Implementation. Our Payroll can handle this, however, PAYE EMS file needs to be updated to meet new format
I have attached supporting document to this case. Need an urgent development meeting to have this actioned. Regards
