Common scenarios - Do I claim GST

Input recovery depends on the expense and its use, with separate guidance for common business situations.

Source checked · 11 October 2026

Key requirements

The hub links employee reimbursements and benefits, motor vehicles, bad-debt relief, subsidised activities and private asset use. It also covers property held through non-legal entities, costs of debt recovery or mortgagee sale, and termination expenses during winding up. Use the detailed page for who incurred the cost, the relevant invoice and any restricted category. Bad-debt relief reverses qualifying output tax under its own conditions; it is not ordinary purchase input tax. Keep the underlying business-purpose analysis alongside the invoice so the claim can be supported if reviewed.
