New business start-up packages to kick-start your business

Start-up business structures

Start-up business structures can include Sole Traders, Partnerships, Trusts and Companies

Each business structure can be used on it’s own or in a combination to achieve specific goals around risk, investment, capital raising and tax objectives.

Changing structures in the future can be done but will usually incur  additional costs from capital gains and stamp duty which can be avoided if set-up properly at the start. 

Each type of entity has strengths and weaknesses which is why we sometimes use more than one entity type to optimise certain benefits and minimise downsides.

We will apply for the Tax File Number, Australian Business Number, business name and various taxation registrations required for your business. 

Business registrations from $280 plus GST

ASIC Fee for the business name is charged separately.

The partnership agreement sets out the rights and obligations of the partners as well as the process for dispute resolutions and how the partnership is dissolved. Partnerships are normally between people but can include other entities. 

Partnership agreements starting from $700 plus gst

A Trust is not an entity in its own right, but a contractual instrument to provide a Trustee authority to manage the assets in its control for the benefit of the beneficiaries.

Trusts are primarily used to distribute profits, control assets/businesses for the future benefit of the beneficiaries. They are often used to separate the functions of control of assets and the benefits derived from owning the assets.

Establishment of Trust Deeds starting from $1,500 plus GST

Companies are a separate legal entity, capable of owning property and paying taxes in it’s own right. Capital is normally distributed by wages and dividends. Companies can be used in different ways to great affect to reduce tax and hedge risk.
