Elect someone to act on your behalf

Form Number: IR597 / Form Code: IR597

About this Guide

Complete this form if you want someone to act on your behalf with Inland Revenue.

This form can be completed on-screen by typing content directly into the PDF document. Once you have completed the form it is important that you print it out as you will not be able to save the information you enter into the form.

When to use this guide

Complete this form to nominate someone (for example, a family member or company’s staff member) to act on your behalf with Inland Revenue. This includes making enquiries, receiving your statements, refunds and other correspondence. Having a nominated person does not change your responsibilities. You are still responsible for your own tax affairs, so you need to make sure that any returns are filed and tax paid by the due date.

Use the space available on the back of this form if you need to nominate more than one person

For individuals, a nominated person can only be set by the person on whose account the nominated person will have authority.

For a non-individual entity, a nominated person (for example, payroll clerk or office administrator) can only be set up by a company director or shareholder, a trustee or estate administrator, or an executive officer.

To protect your privacy and security we can only discuss your tax affairs and/or child support with you or the person you nominate to act on your behalf (your nominee).

What you will need

Child support customers will need to complete an Elect someone to make child support enquiries on your behalf (IR146) form.

You will need your IRD number and personal details, and the IRD number and details of the person or people you are nominating.
