About the Australia fiscal year

Australia's financial year runs from July 1 to June 30. The convention was set by the Audit Act 1901 and applies to both the Commonwealth budget and personal income tax filings administered by the ATO.

For accountants and budget planners working on this calendar, the fiscal year runs from July 1 through June 30. The first fiscal month (FM1) corresponds to July; the fourth quarter ends on the last day of June. Year-end close, audit windows, and budget kickoff all anchor to those dates rather than to January and December. For a deeper introduction to fiscal-year mechanics, see our primer on fiscal years and the historical background on why fiscal years differ across countries.

Below you'll find printable monthly templates for every fiscal month, quarterly breakdowns, the country-specific deadline schedule, and a holiday calendar mapped onto the fiscal year so you can see where each public holiday falls relative to your reporting cycle.

Key fiscal deadlines — Australia

These are the recurring statutory and operational dates that drive the Australia fiscal calendar. Use them as fixed anchors when scheduling close milestones, audit walkthroughs, board meetings, and budget reviews.

Planning tips for Australia

• Australia's July–June year is one of the few in the OECD; chosen historically to align with the Southern Hemisphere planting cycle.
• FBT (fringe benefits tax) year is April 1 – March 31, distinct from the income year — caution when reconciling.
• Quarterly BAS (business activity statement) lodgements: 28 Oct, 28 Feb, 28 Apr, 28 Jul.

Choose a fiscal year

FY labels follow the year-end convention: a fiscal year is identified by the calendar year in which it ends. Each link opens the full year-at-a-glance with all twelve fiscal months on one page.

Monthly templates

Each printable monthly template uses the standard Sunday-start week grid with Australia public holidays highlighted. Click through to print or save a clean copy. Templates are labelled FM1–FM12 in fiscal-year order, not calendar-year order.

Quarterly breakdowns

Each quarter spans three fiscal months. Quarterly templates are useful for board reporting, mid-year reforecasts, and quarter-end variance reviews.

Public holidays — Australia

Holidays are listed in calendar order. On every monthly template they appear shaded in the grid with a short label, and each holiday name links to a dedicated page with observance notes and fiscal-month placement.
