Another requirement is the inclusion of an Australian Public Officer on the company's staff, who must have an education in the accounting field and be a citizen of the country.

To register, you will need to prepare a package of papers, which should include ASIC form FS01 - a document that indicates current information about who the person submitting the application is, what business direction will be opened, what services and products will be provided as part of the business, etc. Further.

2. Opening an account in an Australian banking institution.
3. Drawing up a simple business plan that describes the goals and prospects for the development of a commercial area, the expected level of income, methods of obtaining it, etc.
