The Internal Revenue Commission (IRC) is issuing a final warning to businesses in Papua New Guinea, reminding them of their obligation to file outstanding tax returns by November 29, 2024. This is the last grace period extended by the IRC, and businesses that fail to comply will face severe penalties, including deregistration, freezing of bank accounts, and suspension of business operations.
For small and medium enterprises (SMEs), ensuring tax compliance is not just about avoiding penalties—it’s about safeguarding the future of your business. With the deadline fast approaching, now is the time to act and secure your business’s financial standing.
Why Tax Compliance is Essential for SMEs
Maintaining compliance with tax regulations is vital for any business, but it’s especially critical for SMEs. Ensuring tax returns are filed on time can:
- Protect Business Operations – Failure to comply can lead to severe consequences, such as the freezing of business bank accounts, which can halt your operations.
- Build Trust and Credibility – Proper tax compliance enhances your reputation with financial institutions, clients, and partners.
- Prevent Unnecessary Penalties – Late or incomplete filings can result in hefty fines, straining your cash flow.
- Prepare for Future Growth – Tax compliance is essential for securing business loans and investments, helping you expand sustainably.
Despite its importance, many SMEs struggle with the complexities of tax compliance. This is where SmartBiz Pacific steps in to assist.
