AU Payroll - ABN exempt non-employee contractors
I hope Xero will soon introduce the feature for ABN exemption for non-employee contractors, as there are cases that they are ABN exempt. I'm sharing the ATO link with you for your reference, https://www.ato.gov.au/forms-and-instructions/statement-by-supplier-not-quoting-an-abn?
Thanks for sharing, Michelle. Appreciate why you'd like this functionality.
We've reviewed your idea and now it's up to the community to get behind and support it. We'll let you know if there are any updates here.

I also really hope this can be an option in Xero - this is the only thing preventing me from processing all Super through Xero.

Would it be possible to create an additional category, separate from labour hire and non-employee, for individuals who provide services only on an occasional basis—for example, as a hobby—and do not have an ABN?
These individuals complete an ATO Supplier Declaration form, so they are classified as non-employees; however, they do not hold an ABN. Currently, we are required to categorise them under labour hire, which is not an accurate classification in this case.
Thank you
