You must notify AUSTRAC when your declared earnings figure changes from the previous year to ensure you will be invoiced the correct amount (if anything) for your industry contribution levy. You must do this within 14 days of finalising your annual financial reports or statements.

Calculating your earnings

If you are an authorised deposit-taking institution (ADI), or related to an ADI, your earnings comprise profit before tax, depreciation and amortisation (PBTDA). If you are not an ADI, your earnings comprise earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA). Note that in both cases, earnings is not gross revenue.

The calculating earnings fact sheet, available in Word (933KB) or PDF (418KB) has detailed information on what earnings you need to report and how to calculate them.
