What Country Specific Data Does

Country Specific Data stores employer information needed for local payroll compliance, statutory reports, and payroll exports.

Depending on the country, this may include employer numbers, tax identifiers, NHI numbers, Social Security numbers, or other registration fields.

When To Use Country Specific Data

Use this section when:

• Setting up a company in a new country.
• Preparing statutory payroll reports.
• Fixing missing employer information on exports.
• Updating company tax or contribution identifiers.
• Support asks for statutory employer fields to be completed.

Practical Example: BVI Employer Setup

A BVI company needs to prepare Inland Revenue payroll reporting.

Before exporting the report, the company should confirm that the required employer fields are completed in Country Specific Data. Missing employer identifiers can cause report errors or rejected filings.

Practical Example: Missing NHI Number

If an NHI report is missing the employer NHI number, check Country Specific Data first. If the field is blank, enter the correct employer registration number and rerun the report.

Setup Steps

1. Go to Payroll > Payroll Setting.
2. Open Country Specific Data.
3. Review each required field.
4. Enter the correct employer registration values.
5. Save the setup.
6. Run or preview the statutory report to confirm the data appears.

Common Mistakes

• Leaving country-specific fields blank.
• Entering employee numbers instead of employer numbers.
• Updating the company profile but not the payroll country-specific fields.
• Assuming all countries require the same fields.
