Company Registration FAQs

Everything you need to know

Got questions about registering a company in Australia? We've answered the most common ones below. Still not sure? Book a free call with our team.

Most company registrations are completed within 1-3 business days. Once ASIC processes your application, you'll receive your Australian Company Number (ACN) and Certificate of Registration via email, along with access to our legal platform where you can manage your company documents.

The $611 is the standard fee charged by ASIC (Australian Securities and Investments Commission) to register a proprietary limited company (Pty Ltd) in Australia. This fee is set by the government and is the same regardless of which provider you use.

With Sprintlaw, this fee includes your company registration with ASIC, your ACN, a Certificate of Registration, digital company documents, and access to our legal platform. No hidden charges or surprise costs.

To register a company in Australia, you'll need:

  • Your proposed company name
  • Details of at least one director (must be 18+ and ordinarily resident in Australia)
  • Details of at least one shareholder
  • A registered office address in Australia
  • A principal place of business address
  • Share structure details (number and type of shares)

Our online form guides you through each step, so you don't need to be an expert.

A Pty Ltd company is a separate legal entity from its owners, which means your personal assets are generally protected from business debts (limited liability). A sole trader structure offers no such separation - you and your business are legally the same.

Companies also benefit from a lower tax rate (25% vs personal rates up to 47%), easier access to funding, and a more professional image. However, they come with more compliance obligations. Most growing businesses choose to incorporate as a Pty Ltd company.

Yes, most businesses will need an Australian Business Number (ABN) and a Tax File Number (TFN). The ABN can be applied for immediately after your company is registered - it's a free process through the Australian Business Register. Your TFN is issued by the ATO and is needed for tax obligations. We can guide you through both processes as part of our platform.

Yes, you can change your company name after registration by lodging a name change with ASIC. There is a government fee for this, and the new name must pass the same availability checks. If you're unsure about your company name, we recommend checking availability first using the tool above - it's free and instant.

Yes, Sprintlaw is an incorporated legal practice regulated by the Law Society of New South Wales. Our team consists of qualified Australian lawyers with experience across commercial and business law. Because we operate online, we keep our costs low and pass those savings on to you - without compromising on legal quality.
