As international businesses look to establish a presence in Australia, it's important to understand the available options. Two primary approaches are:
- registering as a foreign company with ASIC or
- setting up a new Australian subsidiary.
Each path has its own advantages and requirements. Registering as a foreign company allows direct control over Australian operations with less administrative burden. However, it requires the lodgement of annual financial statements with ASIC and the maintenance of a registered office in Australia. Setting up an Australian subsidiary company offers limited liability as a separate legal entity and may be viewed more favourably by local clients. The key requirement is having at least one Australian resident director.
