ASIC Registration FAQs

What are the advantages of registering a company? +
Key advantages include: 1) Limited liability protection for shareholders, 2) Separate legal entity status, 3) Enhanced business credibility, 4) Perpetual succession (company continues despite ownership changes), 5) Easier access to capital and financing, 6) Potential tax advantages, 7) Clear ownership structure through shares.
How long does ASIC company registration take? +
Standard company registration typically takes 1-3 business days once all required information and documents are submitted to ASIC. Expedited processing may be available for urgent registrations. The timeline depends on ASIC’s workload and the complexity of your application. We ensure your application is complete to avoid delays.
What ongoing obligations does a company have? +
Company obligations include: 1) Paying annual review fees to ASIC, 2) Notifying ASIC of changes (directors, addresses, shareholders), 3) Keeping company records updated, 4) Lodging financial reports if required, 5) Maintaining registered office, 6) Holding annual general meetings, 7) Complying with corporate governance requirements. We can help manage these ongoing compliance needs.
Can a foreigner register a company in Australia? +
Yes, foreigners can register companies in Australia. However, there are additional requirements: 1) At least one director must ordinarily reside in Australia, 2) The company must have a registered office in Australia, 3) Foreign investors may need FIRB approval depending on the investment amount and nature, 4) Additional tax and reporting obligations may apply. We assist international clients with these requirements.
What is the difference between a company and a business name? +
A company is a legal entity that can own property, sue and be sued. A business name is simply a trading name registered to an existing entity (individual, partnership or company). You need both: register a company with ASIC, then register a business name if you want to trade under a name different from your company name. The company provides liability protection while the business name is just a trading name.
