Notice of officeholder data-matching program

The ATO will acquire officeholder data from ASIC, the Office of the Registrar of Indigenous Corporations and the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission for the 2024 and 2025 income years, including details such as:

  • their name, address and date of birth;
  • email address and contact phone number;
  • organisation class, type and status, and state of incorporation; and
  • officeholder type, role type, and officeholder role start and end dates.

The ATO estimates that records relating to approximately 11 million individuals will be obtained.


This program aims to (among other things) enable the Australian Business Registry Services to increase uptake of the director ID, and better utilise registry data to combat unlawful activity.
