Notice is hereby given, pursuant to the Legislation Act 2019, that the New Zealand Accounting Standards Board of the External Reporting Board has issued Reporting Requirements for Tier 4 Not-for-Profit Entities (“Standard”).
Standard
Reporting Requirements for Tier 4 Not-for-Profit Entities:
- applies to all Tier 4 not-for-profit public benefit reporting entities and groups, other than where expressly exempted by its terms, the terms of any other approved accounting standard or bylaw;
- is secondary legislation for the purposes of the Legislation Act 2019; and
- is published on 18 May 2023 and takes effect on the 28th day after the date of its publication under the Legislation Act 2019 and commences to apply as set out below.
Commencement and application
The accounting periods in relation to which this Standard commences to apply are:
- for an early adopter, those accounting periods following, and including, the early adoption accounting period.
- for any other reporting entity, those accounting periods following, and including, the first accounting period for the entity that begins on or after the mandatory date.
early adopter means a reporting entity that applies this Standard for an early adoption accounting period.
early adoption accounting period means an accounting period of the early adopter:
- that begins before the mandatory date but has not ended or does not end before this Standard takes effect (and to avoid doubt, that period may have begun before this Standard takes effect); and

- first applies this Standard in preparing its financial statements; and
- discloses in its financial statements for that accounting period that this Standard has been applied for that period.
mandatory date means 1 April 2024.
