    Hi ATL 

     

    If the employee doesn't provide you with their IRD number you do need to apply the highest non-declaration tax rate of 45%, otherwise, you can use their delegated IRD number and tax rate. So, you probably want your employee to get onto that as soon as possible even for their sake - nothing like 45% of your wages being deducted as tax.

Yes, thanks, that's what I thought but just wanted to check.

I have told him he'll get taxed at a very high rate and he has said he will get it to me, so I hope for his sake he does
