Four start-up tasks

If you are starting a business there are several requirements you need to know about.

If you carry on business under a name other than your own real name (without additions) you must register that name as a business name.

Registering for an ABN is not compulsory but you will need one to register for the GST.

If you carry on an enterprise, which includes a business, you must register for GST if your GST turnover is $75,000 or more ($150,000 or more for non-profit organisations).

You may require licences to operate your business in South Australia. The Business Licence Information Service (BLIS) is a free service that provides details of all licences you may need.
  1. Get a business name
