Dear ATO community,

My employer intends to transfer me to Australia to lead our subsidiary, and apply for the Visa 482 visa. I understand that while being a temporary resident, I am only taxed on my local income.


I am currently Board Director of our group holding in Europe, and perceive director's bonus on a quarterly basis.


What is the taxation regime for this income, sourced outside of Australia, but from the same group of company?


Many thanks

Hi @seanvomscheidt8,


As a temporary resident for tax purposes you'll need to let us know about your Australian derived income and any income you earn form employment or services performed overseas. This means if you're working in Australia and earn employment income from overseas, you don't need to tell us. If you did the work overseas, then you'll need to include it in your tax return.
