Australian Business Number (ABN), Tax File Number (TFN) and Goods and Services Tax (GST) Registration Australian Business Number (ABN) is a unique 11-digit number that identifies a business or organisation to the government or community. Tax File Number (TFN) is a reference number in the tax and superannuation systems issued by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a tax of 10% on most goods, services and other items sold or consumed in Australia. If your business is registered for GST, you have to collect this extra money (one-eleventh of the sale price) from your customers. You pay this to the ATO when it is due. Kaizen will handle the application for Australian Business Number, Tax File Number and registration of Goods and Services Tax (GST) after the company is duly registered. |
