Access Royalties Online

Royalties Online is a system for Western Australian mineral and petroleum producers to electronically prepare, lodge and view royalty returns and production reports.

You or your company must be a current producer to be considered as a candidate to use this restricted system.

Royalties Online contains:

• a two year history of lodgements
• account details
• projects
• other users who have access to the same projects
• outstanding lodgements and communications between the department and yourself
• information on how to pay royalties
• royalty payment non compliance information.

Only if you are a current mineral or petroleum producer.

Send an email to royalty.returns@demirs.wa.gov.au. providing the user name, name, company and contact details and the department will ensure that user is removed from the system.

Contact the department’s IT Service Desk on +61 8 9222 0777 or contact IT Service Desk.

Log into the royalties online and select the ‘royalty return’ tab.

This tab will display all the projects active for the registered users. To enter the royalty return for a specific project, select the project name on the left hand side of the screen which will then expand to display all the periods.

Select the period you need to report on and expand the product header. Once you can view all the fields, enter the required details, which are highlighted in yellow.

Then click on ‘lodge return’.

Yes.  If you have lodged a royalty return for previous periods, a subsequent return is required even though it may be a nil return.

There is a ‘lodge nil return’ button that can be selected for each project/quarter.

Select the project/quarter and expand the relevant product to view by clicking on the blue product header.

Click the ‘change details’ button and a new line item for that product will appear. Enter the new updated details, not the difference, when making adjustments to a previously lodged return.

Log into the Royalties Online system and select the ‘production report’ tab.

If you are required to lodge a Production Report, a ‘Production Report’ tab will display all the active projects for the registered users. To enter the production report for a specific project, select the project name on the left hand side of the screen, which will then expand to display all the periods.

Select the period you need to report on and expand the product header. Once you can view all the fields, enter the required details.

Then click on ‘lodge all’.

Yes.  If you have lodged a Production Report for previous periods, a subsequent report is required for every tenement even though it may be a nil report.

If the entire project has nil production, select ‘lodge all as nil’.

Otherwise, Royalties Online provides you the facility to select which tenements you need to report nil.

Select the project/quarter and expand the relevant product to view by clicking on the blue header.

Enter the new full updated details, not the difference, when making adjustments to a previously lodged report.

Royalty returns and Production Reports cannot be amended online if they are older than two years. If you require data prior to two years, please contact the department’s Royalties Branch via email to royalty.returns@demirs.wa.gov.au.
