Tax in Australia

Tax Services in Australia for Small Businesses

Australian businesses file federal company tax, GST, and PAYG withholding with the ATO regardless of which state they're based in, but the state layer changes things underneath that: payroll tax thresholds, rates, and grouping rules for related entities vary significantly from state to state.

Business operating across more than one state often assumes one set of rules applies everywhere, which is exactly where payroll tax compliance goes wrong. Profitjets prepares your federal company tax and GST filings, tracks your wages against each specific state's payroll tax threshold, and coordinates BAS lodgment on a consistent schedule.

Federal tax

Federal Tax Services for Australian Businesses

Company tax, GST, and PAYG withholding are federal obligations that apply the same way regardless of which state you operate in, and getting all three filed correctly and on time is the baseline everything else sits on top of.

We file your company tax return, register and file GST, and manage PAYG withholding for your team, coordinated on a consistent BAS lodgment schedule.

State payroll tax

State Payroll Tax, Tracked Correctly by State

Payroll tax thresholds, rates, and grouping rules for related entities vary by state, so a business operating in more than one state needs its wages tracked against each state's specific rules separately, not one blended assumption.

We track your wages against the correct threshold in every state you operate in, check grouping rules for related entities, and register at the right moment in each.

What Australia Businesses Say

Olivia Marsh
Founder, Marsh Bondi Wellness Studio

Payroll Tax Threshold Finally Tracked Correctly

"We hired quickly and expanded into a second state, and our books never flagged that each state had its own separate threshold. Profitjets set up tracking for both, so we see it coming instead of finding out from a notice."

Daniel Cho
Owner, Cho Surry Hills Design Co.

GST and BAS Finally on One Schedule

"Our GST and BAS lodgments used to be inconsistent because our books weren't structured for it. Profitjets got us onto one consistent schedule and it hasn't slipped since."

Priya Nair
CFO, Nair Parramatta Tech Solutions

Company Tax Filed Correctly After a Restructure

"We restructured our entity and our next company tax filing didn't reflect it properly. Profitjets caught the mismatch and corrected our filing with the ATO."
