Payroll tax annual return
If you see the warning message ‘Not all periodic form bundles processed in Return details: Field Periodic payments’, it usually means that you haven’t lodged all your periodic returns for the financial year. It could also mean that there might be an issue with a lodged return.
If you believe you have lodged all your periodic returns and are still getting the message, contact us.
Outages
For planned outages, like scheduled maintenance, you’ll see a message on the QRO Online log in screen.
For unplanned outages, you could try to log in every 30 minutes or so—we’ll work to resolve these as soon as possible.
If you don’t receive any of the emails as part of the steps to create your account, you may need to contact us.
The emails will come from no-reply@qroonlinelogin.treasury.qld.gov.au. You might need to check your junk or spam email folder.
If you still haven’t received an email, there might be a firewall issue and you will need to talk to your IT specialist.

If you continue to have trouble, contact us. Make sure you include:

You must use a personal email address to create an individual account in QRO Online.
Do not use generic or shared email addresses (e.g. accounts@company.mail).
Each account must be individually verified, so using a shared account means that personal information will be accessible to anyone who logs in using the shared email address.
Once you have created your account, you must verify your identity before you’ll be able to link to other accounts or view and pay your liability.
Land tax options
If you personally own land in Queensland, you will be able to access information about your land holdings (once you’ve verified your account). This doesn’t mean you owe land tax, it just means we have identified land held in your name.
You will then be able to register for other state revenue streams from the Home screen.
Select:
- My land to view your personal land holdings in Queensland. (This tile will only appear after you have verified your identity.)
- Add account to link to accounts for other people, companies and trusts.
Royalty options
If you personally hold an interest (or share) in a mining or petroleum resource authority and you are the registered royalty client, you will be able to access information about your royalty operation and resource authorities.
You will then be able to register for other state revenue streams from the Home screen.
Select:
- Royalty to view your personal operation and resource authorities in Queensland.
- Add account to link to accounts for other people, companies and trusts.
Permissions
Once you have permission to manage a company or trust account, you can assign access to other users (e.g. the company accountant).
These users cannot see your personal information (e.g. details of land that you own in your name).
To ensure you assign access correctly, select View accounts on the Home screen, select the entity and then select Assign permission from the left menu.
