Detailed design

Last updated 10 February 2021

We have developed a local file and master file XML schema (LCMSF) and associated validation rules to enable reporting entities to submit their local file and master file to the ATO.

The design of the LCMSF allows for the local file's three components and the master file to be submitted independently of each other. The LCMSF also contains a country-by-country (CBC) report notification section to allow reporting entities to provide details of their global parent entity or surrogate parent entity for us to anticipate exchange from the relevant foreign jurisdictions.

However, entities lodging the CBC report directly with us must lodge the CBC report separately in accordance with the OECD XML schema and User GuideExternal Link.

The LCMSF comprises the following sections:

statement information for basic information relating to the statement being submitted
entity information about the reporting entity, the global parent entity (where applicable) and declarations
master file
CBC report notification
local file, including the short form, Part A and Part B
intermediary information.

You should also refer to the Appendices for various relevant codes used for reporting as part of the lodgment.

Electronic lodgment

How to lodge

CBC statements (the CBC report, master file and local file) must be lodged via one of the following ATO approved channels:

Online services for business using the File transfer facility (not via secure mail)
Online services for agents using the File transfer facility (not via mail message)
Standard Business ReportingExternal Link (SBR) using SBR-enabled software.

CBC statements must be submitted via the above channels using a validly generated XML file, otherwise the lodgment will not be considered valid. This XML file is generated by your business management software (tax reporting or accounting software) using the ATO provided XML schema. Additionally, the XML file must adhere to our validation rules and other technical requirements.

You may need to make enquires with your software provider as to whether they support lodging CBC reporting statements to the ATO.

If the valid lodgments are not received by the due date, increased failure to lodge penalties may be imposed. You may request a deferral by email CBCReporting@ato.gov.au if you have difficulty in meeting the due date.

For more information on electronic lodgment, visit our Online services page.

For more information on the XML schema, validation rules and other technical documentation, visit our Significant Global Entity ObligationsExternal Link (SGEO) page on the SBR websiteExternal Link and the CBC software developersExternal Link site.

Amendments

The LCMSF does not support delta amendments. When making an amendment to a previously lodged statement (or part thereof), please ensure that all the data related to that statement (or part thereof) is resubmitted along with the corrected data.

Cancelling lodgments

If you would like to cancel a lodgment that has been submitted, please email the CBC Reporting team.

Attachments

No particular attachment naming convention is enforced, with the exception that:

filenames must be unique
cannot exceed 255 characters
cannot contain the following illegal characters: <, >, :, ", /, \, |, ?, *.
filenames are not case sensitive.

There is a maximum of 500 attachments per lodgment, where the size of any single attachment cannot exceed 20Mb. All attachments embedded in the XML file must also be referenced at the appropriate LCMSF element depending on the type of attachment.

Table 3 outlines the types of attachments that are accepted. Multiple attachments can be embedded for each type:

Table 3: Supported attachment types
Attachment Code	Attachment Type
MSTR	Master file
LFSF	Local file – short form
LFPBI	IRP agreement

Table 4 lists the supported attachment formats that can be embedded within the XML file (using BASE64 encoding). Attachments cannot contain active content, that is, macros, JavaScript, etc.
