Self-assessment requires taxpayers to compute and declare GST liability and correct return omissions with interest consequences. Section 59 requires registered persons to self-assess, declare and pay GST in the prescribed return for each tax period; this taxpayer-driven assessment does not confer powers of a proper officer and remains subject to interest and penalty for errors. If a taxpayer discovers omissions or incorrect particulars (not identified by a proper officer), the taxpayer must rectify them and pay differential tax with interest, subject to a temporal limit ending either by the 30th day of November following the financial year concerned or the date of filing the Annual Return, whichever is earlier.
