How to pay

1

Compute the quarterly amount

Look up the trade and quarterly rate. For per-unit trades (chairs, tonnes, seats), multiply by the unit count.

2

Pay on the QPD dates

25 Mar, 25 Jun, 25 Sep, 20 Dec. Same rhythm as company QPDs.

3

File the IT 1 (Presumptive)

An annual declaration is still required even if presumptive tax was paid quarterly.
