Managing your business registrations
There are other government online services available to help you manage your business registrations. These can also help you nominate others to act on behalf of your business.
- You can use Australian Business Register (ABR) online services to apply for, update and cancel an ABN. You can also manage your other registrations, such as GST, through your ABN application.
- If you are a company director, you can use ABRS online to apply, maintain and manage your director ID information. You will need to use a Digital ID, such as myID, to log on to ABRS online.
- myID is the Australian Government's Digital ID app, which lets you prove who you are when logging in to a range of government online services.
- As a business owner, you can use a Digital ID to link your business in Relationship Authorisation Manager (RAM) and authorise others to act on behalf of your business. Using RAM will also help simplify your interactions with government agencies.
- You can also use your Digital ID to log in to Access Manager to manage access and permissions for ATO online services such as Online services for agents, Online services for business and Australian Business Register (ABR).
