When do I need to register for GST in Australia?
Common question · Tax Law · Australia · 23 October 2026
General information from Lawmateanz
You must register for GST if your business has a GST turnover of $75,000 or more, or $150,000 or more for a not-for-profit organisation.
Taxi and ride-sourcing drivers must register regardless of turnover.
Once registered, you charge 10% GST on most sales and lodge business activity statements.
The ATO's website explains how to register.
