Election 2026: what are the tax proposals?

An ageing population, healthcare costs and infrastructure needs are putting pressure on New Zealand’s public finances. How we fund those needs is an important part of the election debate.

At The Accounting Hub, we believe the discussion needs to look beyond headline tax rates. A good tax system should be fair, give people certainty about what they owe, and keep payment arrangements and compliance costs manageable.

Adam Smith outlined these principles 250 years ago. They still provide a useful way to assess tax proposals today, whatever your political views.

Our latest blog looks at the main parties’ tax proposals and what they could mean for your business, investments and cash flow.

Moving to New Zealand with an investment portfolio?

If you have overseas shares, managed funds or other investments, New Zealand’s foreign investment fund (FIF) rules may affect how you’re taxed.

Under the FIF regime, you may need to pay tax on income calculated each year, even if you haven’t sold your investments or received that income in cash. Further changes to the rules are also before Parliament.

Read our guide to understand how the FIF rules could apply to you: https://theaccountinghub.co.nz/moving-to-new-zealand-with-an-investment-portfolio-understanding-the-fif-rules/

Are you a small charity or incorporated society paying too much in accounting fees?

We recently met with a small incorporated society paying more than $4,000 a year for Tier 3 financial statements, as well as a formal review.

However, with annual operating payments below $140,000, this organisation qualified to use the simpler Tier 4 reporting framework. It may also not have needed a review, depending on its governing documents and funding requirements.

The cheapest option won’t suit every organisation, but it’s worth checking whether the level of reporting and assurance you’re paying for is appropriate for your size and needs.

The Employment Leave Act 2026 will replace the Holidays Act from 6 August 2028, significantly changing how employee leave is earned, recorded and paid.

Key updates include:

• Annual and sick leave will accrue in hours from an employee’s first day
• Sick leave will be proportionate to an employee’s standard hours
• A clearer test will apply when determining public holiday entitlements
• Alternative leave will accrue hour for hour when an employee works on a public holiday that would otherwise be a working day
• Leave payments will use a more consistent hourly calculation

Nothing changes yet, employers must continue following the current Holidays Act until August 2028. However, it is worth understanding the changes and checking that your payroll records are accurate.

Read our employer’s guide to what is changing and how to prepare:

Could it happen to your business or charity?

Most fraud doesn't happen because business owners, managers or trustees are careless. It happens because they're busy. When one trusted person is responsible for the entire payment process, it can create opportunities for both internal fraud and increasingly sophisticated invoice scams.

In our latest blog, we explain why small businesses and charities are particularly vulnerable, highlight a recent New Zealand example, and share practical steps you can take to reduce the risk and better protect your organisation.

Have you bought cryptocurrency at some point over the last few years?

You're not alone. What often catches people out, however, is that the tax rules are not always as straightforward as they expect. Many investors who have never considered themselves traders can still create taxable events through everyday crypto transactions.

Our latest blog explains some of the most common misconceptions and why cryptocurrency is becoming a growing tax blind spot for many professionals.

Buying into a medical practice can be a significant career and financial decision, but what are you actually paying for?

While many prospective buyers focus on fees or patient numbers when valuing a practice, the real value often lies in the future maintainable earnings (profits) the practice can generate, along with important factors such as the other owners, practice culture, patient base and long-term strategy.

We explore how medical practices are commonly valued, what to look for in the financial statements, and the key questions to ask before committing to a buy-in opportunity: https://theaccountinghub.co.nz/what-are-you-buying-when-you-buy-into-a-medical-practice/

Investing has never been more accessible. From shares and ETFs to managed funds and cryptocurrency, Kiwis have more opportunities than ever to grow their wealth.

But while there's no general capital gains tax in New Zealand, that doesn't mean every investment profit is tax-free. Overseas investments, PIE funds and crypto can all have very different tax rules and getting it wrong can be an expensive surprise.

Thinking about investing or already have a portfolio? We can help you understand the tax implications so you can make informed decisions with confidence.
