To set up a subsidiary company in Australia, you’ll need to register with ASIC, Australia’s regulator and get all the right documents sorted to appoint your directors and shareholders. But no stress – we’ll help you every step of the way!
Our lawyers will assist with setting up your subsidiary under a single company structure.
This includes applying for ACN registration with ASIC, and providing you with an electronic company register pack. This pack will contain all the legal documents you need for your subsidiary company, such as a Certificate of Registration, Company Constitution, Share Certificates, Copy of Form 201, Register of Members, and all required resolutions and consents.
At Sprintlaw, we offer a fixed-fee package to set up your subsidiary company in Australia. This means you’ll know exactly what you’re paying up-front and you won’t be hit with any nasty surprise bills. Our packages for subsidiary company set ups start at $800 + GST.
When you choose our subsidiary company set up package, you’ll get help with everything you need to set up a subsidiary company in Australia. This includes applying for ACN registration with ASIC, and delivering you an electronic company register pack.
The company register pack has the legal documents you need to set up your subsidiary company, such as a Certificate of Registration, Company Constitution, Share Certificates, Copy of Form 201, Register of Members, and all required resolutions and consents.
You’ll also receive phone consultations with a Sprintlaw lawyer who will take your instructions, advise you on the legal issues you need to know and answer your questions about the documents.
Please note that this package does not include any regulatory compliance or tax advice.
In order to set up an Australian company, you must have at least 1 Australian resident director. We do not provide a nominated director service. Please also note that we are unable to register your ABN for you. We can provide you with guidance on how to complete this process yourself.
