Company Formation & Incorporation in Australia — frequently asked questions.
Common questions about company formation & incorporation for individuals and businesses in Australia.
Company registration typically takes 1-5 business days in Australia, depending on the type of entity and whether all required documents are in order. Marco Reid can prepare all formation documents and file them electronically.
You'll typically need a company constitution (or articles of association), director consent forms, shareholder details, a registered office address, and identification documents for all directors and shareholders.
Requirements vary by jurisdiction. In Australia, there are specific rules about resident directors and local registered offices. Marco Reid can guide you through the requirements for your situation.
A company is a separate legal entity that limits your personal liability. A sole trader is simpler to set up but you are personally liable for all business debts. The right structure depends on your circumstances, risk profile, and tax situation.
