Stay Ahead of Tax Deadlines with Xero’s BAS Lodgement Due Date Reminders

As accountants, we know that staying on top of lodgement deadlines is critical—not just for compliance, but for peace of mind. That’s why we’re excited to share a powerful new feature in Xero that’s designed to make life easier for both accountants and clients alike.

What’s New?

Xero has introduced Lodgement Due Date Reminders for your Business Activity Statements/ Business Instalment Activity Statements  —a smart, automated tool that helps ensure you never miss a key deadline. You can now:

  • Select a BAS reminder to come to you 1,7 or 14 days before lodgement;

Why It Matters

Deadlines can sneak up fast—especially during the busy end-of-financial-year period. With this new feature, you can:

  • Reduce the risk of late lodgements and penalties

It’s a simple way stay compliant without the stress.
