The use of a Tax Identification Number (TIN) helps us handle queries, trace correspondences and store information for each person that is registered for customs and tax purposes.
Purpose of the TIN
A TIN is unique to each person and will be used by him/her to comply with customs and tax legislation requirements such as:
** lodgement of annual income tax returns.
** lodgement of employment monthly summaries (persons required to deduct tax at source).
** lodgement of Single Administrative Documents (SADs).
** payment of all types of taxes.
** to clear goods at ports of entry.
A TIN may also be issued upon request (and where the applicant does not already have one) in the following circumstances:
** for the purpose of opening a bank account or renewing Land Transport Authority (LTA) driving license.
** for the purpose of issuing certificate of exemption from interest withholding tax – this is presented to financial institutions .
** for the purposes of issuing certificate of exemption from tax in the case of persons who will receive payments under a contract for service.
** to claim for a refund of Value Added Tax (VAT) paid on a new dwelling house.
** to promote a lottery and account for Gambling Turnover Tax (GTT).
** to remit funds overseas and/or for tax clearance purposes.
** to account for Capital Gains Tax on the sale of property in Fiji.
** to account for VAT where the applicant is deemed to be a registered person.
A TIN may be created in cases where a taxpayer is believed to be deriving income in Fiji or is liable to account for VAT and has not registered.
How To Obtain TIN?
Individuals that do not have a TIN must apply to FRCA ,by completing a TIN application form.
You can also use this TIN Registration Form if you are:
** applying for a new bank account or already have one.
** applying for a new LTA driving license or a renewal
** a full time, part-time or casual employee.
** a director who receives directors’ fees from a company.
** a pensioner who receives pensions or are receiving retiree allowances.
** a beneficiary who receives income from a trust or estate receiving income from investments such as interests, dividends
** are working but also engaged in any business.
and those that already have a TIN, must apply for a Joint FNPF/FRCA ID card.
What to do with the completed form?:
If all the requirements are available, you should bring your application to any FRCA (Customer Service Centre) office to obtain your new joint FNPF/FRCA ID card.
Your TIN /new joint FNPF/FRCA ID card may be issued immediately at our Customer Service Centre if you have satisfied the TIN/ new joint FNPF/FRCA ID card registration requirements. Once you receive your new joint FNPF/FRCA ID card you should quote your TIN in all correspondences and communications with FRCA.
