What is Tax Audit Insurance?
Tax audit insurance is a protects you in the event of being audited by the ATO or a State/Territory department. If you run a business, have a Self-Managed Super Fund (SMSF), own investment properties or run a trust, you’re more likely than the average person to be audited.
To come to a resolution, clear and detailed records will need to be provided. If your transaction history, purchase receipts and other documents aren’t readily available, it can be a time-consuming and very expensive process to get the professional assistance needed to prove compliance.
While no insurance can pay any government penalties or unpaid taxes that follow an audit, tax audit insurance can cover the cost of a professional preparing your records so you might avoid any penalties.
What can be covered
- Individual, company, trust and SMSF entities
- Business and director's cover
- Accounting or compliance officer professional fees
What may not be
- Imposed fines or penalties
- Outstanding tax liabilities
- Defence costs in the event of criminal charges
- Your lost time/salary or wages

Tax audit insurance can cover the cost of a professional preparing your records so you might avoid any penalties
Tax Audit Claim Example
James owns a successful furniture store that he’s had for six years. The ATO requested a full review of his business income over a three-year period.
The cost of the review was nearly $16,000 in professional fees for an accountant to collate, verify and correct records for the three-year period in the format the ATO requested.
Because James had tax audit insurance for his business, those fees were covered. He was able to afford the assistance he needed to prove compliance and avoid any penalties or criminal prosecution.
