Application for ABN registration for superannuation entities

How to apply

You can apply for an ABN and the other registrations listed under Overview:

at abr.gov.au
through your registered tax agent
by using the application form and instructions in this booklet.

The fastest way to get an ABN is to apply online.

As long as we can validate your details against data in our systems, your ABN will be issued immediately and written confirmation of the ABN registration will follow. Otherwise, we will aim to process your application within 28 days of receiving all the necessary information. If your application is incomplete, incorrect or needs checking, it may take longer. Do not lodge another application during this time.
