• Personal details (name, date of birth, contact information)

• An Australian address for your business

There usually is a one-time $45 (incl. GST) Registration Fee but for a limited time, you can get it for $10 off if you use our promo code JIMSBOOKKEEPING.

ABNs are issued instantly, most of the time, if the application is completed correctly. However, in some cases, the Australian Business Register (ABR) may require additional checks, which can take up to 28 days.

An Australian Business Number (ABN) is an 11-digit unique identifier issued by the Australian Business Register (ABR).

It helps businesses interact with government agencies, customers, and other businesses.

An ABN is required for issuing invoices, claiming GST credits, and registering a business name.

You generally need an ABN, if you are operating as a sole trader, freelancer, or independent contractor and are carrying on a business or earning income from business activities. If you don’t have an ABN, other businesses may withhold tax at the highest rate when paying you.

No, an ABN and a business name are different.

An ABN identifies your business, while a business name is the name under which you trade.

If you want to operate under a name different from your own legal name, you must register a business name separately with ASIC.
