Platform capabilities
Intelligence built for NZ tax reality.
We didn’t build a generic journal with an “NZ tax” tickbox. The tax engine is the product.
NZ tax done right
Forex and metals are treated as Financial Arrangements. Crypto is treated separately. Shares are tested for purpose of resale. We apply the right rule for every instrument — automatically.
RBNZ NZD conversion on every trade
Every USD, EUR, AUD or JPY P&L is converted to NZD using the official RBNZ mid-rate for the trade-close date. No more spreadsheets, no more month-end reconciliation.

FAQ
Tax questions, answered straight.
How is my forex P&L taxed in NZ?
Realised forex P&L is taxable income under the Financial Arrangements Rules. Most retail traders qualify as a "cash basis person" — meaning P&L is recognised when the trade closes, in NZD at the RBNZ rate on that date. TradeLog NZ applies this treatment by default.
Do I need to pay GST on trading profits?
No. Forex and metals trading P&L is GST-exempt as a financial service. GST only applies if you separately earn income from selling courses, signals, or subscriptions above the $60,000 threshold. We flag this in the dashboard if it applies.
When does provisional tax kick in?
When your residual income tax for the prior year exceeds $5,000. We track this throughout the year and forecast your three instalments — due 28 August, 15 January and 7 May — so you never get caught out.
What about losses?
Trading losses carry forward indefinitely in NZ. We maintain a full ledger and apply prior-year losses against current-year profits before calculating your tax — so you keep the deduction without manual tracking.
