Spring is here, and so is the next compliance cycle. A friendly reminder that both GST and your next Provisional Tax instalment are due on 28 October.

Handling two payments at once can sometimes put a squeeze on cash flow.

If you’d like to look at tax pooling options or discuss a payment plan, please get in touch sooner rather than later so we can get things in place.

Fuel and fertiliser are two of the biggest cash outflows on a farm, and both are sitting high.

Storm damage, wildfires and flooding are on the rise, and each one puts your ability to keep trading at risk.

Four things decide how well a business gets through it: weatherproofed premises, data and systems backed up offsite, insurance that covers regional threats and business interruption, and an emergency plan your staff already know.

Argon Constructors came to us nearly 20 years ago after frequent staff changes at their previous firm. Since then we have handled their financial statements, fixed asset reporting and tax, and more recently advised them through a significant restructure. The same people have looked after them from the beginning.

Contracting or freelancing means wearing a lot of hats. Winning the work, doing the work, chasing the invoice. Money admin is usually the hat that slips.

Three habits make the difference. Know what you can actually claim before you start, so you keep the right receipts. Get a system in place for expenses and invoicing early, rather than sorting it out at the end of the year. And keep your tax money in a separate account, with a little extra put aside for holidays and the quiet months.

If your systems could use some work, talk to the DFK OGC team.

We've put together an article walking through all three in more detail. Read it here:

Budget 2026 changed the tax rules around donations, and the changes roll out across 2027 and 2028.

Not-for-profits get more room before tax applies, with the threshold lifting from $1,000 to $10,000. Donors get faster credit refunds and the option to gift their credit, but eligible donations are now capped at $100,000 a year.

Swipe for what's changing, or read the full rundown below.

New Zealand is one of the more straightforward places in the region to set up a business. That does not mean there is nothing to get right.

Our guide for Australian and Pacific Rim investors covers the ground before you commit: choosing between a company, a branch, a partnership or a joint venture, what the tax and GST obligations look like, the financial reporting and audit rules that apply, and the employment, health and safety and data protection obligations that come with hiring here. It also covers the things that are easy to miss from across the Tasman, including import and export requirements and cultural considerations in doing business in New Zealand.

If you are weighing up the move, the DFK OGC team can talk through what it means for your situation before you spend money on it.
