We’ve changed
In Queensland, we’ve been the Office of State Revenue since 1991, when the Stamp Duties and Land Tax offices combined. Since then we’ve grown and taken on more responsibilities to collect revenue, manage state taxes and administer grants—all to help grow the Queensland economy.
In 2021 we became Queensland Revenue Office (QRO) when OSR and SPER merged. Our new name better reflects who we are and what we do in collecting revenue to allow the government to provide essential services for Queenslanders.
Also, we have an increasing number of clients who operate across multiple states and territories and they tell us it is difficult to distinguish between different revenue offices. The new name identifies us as the revenue authority for Queensland.
How this is happening
We’ve started to make changes.
- Online content—you’ll see online references change pretty quickly. But if you notice any we’ve missed, contact us to let us know!
- QRO Online—we’ve renamed our portal from OSR Online. All links to the portal will take you to the right spot.
- Forms—all our forms are being updated and will be available at Queensland Government Publications. We hope to have this completed by April 2022. If you’ve saved forms to use offline, make sure you download the latest version with our new name.
- Fact sheets and other publications—we will be updating these and uploading to Queensland Government Publications over the coming months.
- Correspondence—any letters, emails and text messages from us will clearly show that the sender is Queensland Revenue Office or QRO.
