ABN vs ACN - Everything You Need to Know

In a nutshell, all registered businesses in Australia must have an Australian Business Number (ABN). However, not all registered businesses are required to have an Australian Company Number (ACN); only those businesses registered specifically as companies need to have ACNs. read more about it here

Why register a company?

While incorporating a company will mean adding a range of regulatory and reporting requirements, there are many advantages to incorporating a company. Some of these advantages include:

Limited Liability

As a sole trader or partnership, you are personally liable for all aspects of your business, including debts and losses. This can put your personal assets at risk. On the other hand, operating as a company separates your personal assets from your business, providing a layer of protection.

Tax-effective

Switching to a company structure can result in lower taxes due to the lower tax rate for businesses and the ability to claim tax deductions

Brand recognition

Registering your company boosts brand recognition and credibility. It positions your business as a separate entity, accountable to ASIC and operating with an ACN. Third parties prefer dealing with registered companies, enhancing your reputation and facilitating future partnerships

Investments

Investors prefer registered companies for investment opportunities as they offer the ability to raise equity capital and borrow money. It also provides a formal structure that gives investors confidence in the business.

Small business accounting

Bye Bye, paper receipts

Piles of receipts getting you down? Snap a pic of your receipts and ANNA automatically sorts them and attaches them to the right transactions.

Invoicing

Invoices that get paid sooner

With ANNA One you can send professional-looking invoices in seconds. And if they’re not paid, we chase them for you – which means 80% of ANNA invoices are paid within a week
