TIN status

No separate local TIN format is published for validation.

  • 1 Do not collect an Australian TFN or ABN under the HM country code; use Australia only where the account holder is an Australian tax resident.
  • 2 The HM ISO code may appear in country lists, but it should not produce a country-specific TIN validator.
