Accounts that can be added through the ABR include:
GST
GST and FTC (FTC can only be added at the same time as GST), or

You can register for GST and PAYG withholding via the portals. Tax agents will need to ensure their tax agent number is recorded against the client’s record before they can add a new business account for a client.
To perform these actions online you will need to register for a free digital certificate via online services.
