The second phase of STP reporting 


Single Touch Payroll (STP) phase 1 has been in place since 2018 and phase 2 arrived in 2022. All Australian employers must regularly submit payroll information through STP2 unless an exemption or deferral has been granted.

Our last STP2 webinar was held on 14 October 2022 and gave our customers a refresher before the 1 November start date. You can watch all past STP2 webinars on the link below.

For existing Sybiz customers to meet the requirements of Single Touch Payroll Phase 2 you will need to be on an STP2 compatible version of Sybiz Visipay. We recommend being on the latest version to keep up with compliance requirements.

  • How will STP2 affect your current reporting procedures?
  • How will STP2 change your employee onboarding process?
  • What penalties can occur from not meeting Single Touch Payroll phase 2 compliance?
  • Is your payroll data STP2 ready?
  • Are your employees aware of the impact, such as no more payment summaries?
