Doing business in Australia

At the discovery stage, we seek a comprehensive understanding of your intentions for the Australian part of your business and how that fits in with your worldwide operations. That helps us to scope only the things that are relevant to you.

We scope the advice and services that best fit your situation. These are typically broken into two components – one off tasks and recurring tasks. We propose timing, fees, terms and conditions which if acceptable to you, inform the action stages that follow.

Quickly getting going in Australia is a common requirement and it can all happen in 2-3 days. We will advise you about the most appropriate corporate structure (if any) for the Australian operation. We will set up the structure, ensure all relevant registrations are complete and all other pre-trading legal obligations are met. Local company directorship is available, as is assistance to set up a local bank account or accounts. We can help you to select and set up an Australia-ready accounting package that fits with your reporting requirements.

Once you get going, the next phase is to build and maintain success. Typical examples of our services include management of the end-to-end finance function, bookkeeping, payroll, superannuation, reporting, directorship, accessing government grants and incentives, tax advice, legal advice, corporate secretarial services, tax reporting and ASIC reporting.

Ours is a relationship-based business and we know that we are often your eyes and ears on the ground. Regular communication brings peace of mind and regular online meetings are a part of the experience. Meantime, we make sure that if something changes, you can rely on us to bring it to your attention.
