Logging in to our services is now a little different

The update to the login process ensures your personal information is more secure and better safeguarded.

Published 4 April 2025

We now use the Australian Government Digital ID System to verify your ID when you use your Digital ID to access:

  • Online services for business
  • Relationship Authorisation Manager (RAM)
  • Access Manager
  • Australian Business Register (ABR).

You may use these services when updating your NFP’s details, lodging your NFP self-review return or lodging your NFP’s activity statement.

What to expect

The next time you log in, you’ll be prompted with 2 new screens.

The first screen allows you to select a Digital ID provider, such as myID, while the second screen requests your consent for your information to be shared with the online service.  

To make it faster to login, you can select ‘Remember my choice’ and ‘Yes, remember my consent’. However, this is not recommended if you use a shared device.  

These screens may look familiar if you've used your Digital ID to access other government services.

For secure access, always:

  • log in directly through the ATO, RAM and ABR websites
  • log out after your session and close the browser to keep your information secure from unauthorised access.
