Disclosure focus

Disclosure 207-4 requires an organization to report financial, economic and tax-related information for every tax jurisdiction in which entities included in its audited consolidated financial statements or publicly filed financial information are resident for tax purposes. The reporting population includes permanent establishments and dormant entities. Entities that are not resident in any tax jurisdiction are reported separately.

For each tax jurisdiction, the organization reports the names of resident entities, its primary activities, the number of employees and calculation basis, third-party revenue, revenue from intra-group transactions with other tax jurisdictions, profit or loss before tax, tangible assets other than cash and cash equivalents, corporate income tax paid on a cash basis, current corporate income tax accrued on profit or loss, and the reasons for the difference between accrued tax and the tax that would result from applying the statutory rate to profit or loss before tax.

Country-by-country figures are generally reported at the level of tax jurisdictions rather than individual entities. Entity names are listed separately, while the financial, employee and tax data are consolidated for all resident entities in the jurisdiction.

The organization uses the period covered by its most recent audited consolidated financial statements or publicly filed financial information. If the required country-level information is not available for that period, it can use the immediately preceding audited or publicly filed period and explain the difference.

Third-party revenue, profit or loss before tax, tangible assets and cash corporate income tax are reconciled so that the sum across all tax jurisdictions equals the corresponding amount in the audited or publicly filed financial information. Current tax accrued excludes deferred tax and provisions for uncertain tax positions.

Where reliable required information cannot be reported, the organization applies the relevant reason for omission. It should not exclude small, dormant or low-activity jurisdictions or replace unavailable required data with unsupported estimates.

This LRA educational guidance supports disclosure preparation. For the exact requirements, always refer to the official Global Reporting Initiative source.

Draft your disclosure

Notes that turn data into a disclosure

LRA training templates — adapt them to your organisation, and check the official source before sign-off.

Method note

Where reliable required information cannot be reported, the organization applies the relevant reason for omission. It should not exclude small, dormant or low-activity jurisdictions or replace unavailable required data with unsupported estimates.

Context note

Keep mandatory Requirements, GRI recommendations and additional LRA preparation controls clearly distinguished. Use a GRI 1 reason for omission where an applicable requirement cannot be reported.
