The best structure depends on your business goals, liabilities, and tax considerations. Common options include sole trader, partnership, company, or trust. Foye Legal can assess your circumstances and recommend the most suitable structure.
In NSW, businesses must register with the Australian Business Register (ABR) to obtain an ABN. Companies also need to register with ASIC and comply with the Corporations Act 2001. Additional licenses may apply depending on your industry.
These agreements define the roles, rights, and obligations of stakeholders, including decision-making processes, profit distribution, and dispute resolution. They help avoid conflicts and ensure smooth business operations.
Each structure has unique tax implications. For example, sole traders are taxed at personal income rates, while companies are taxed at the corporate rate. Structuring for tax efficiency ensures compliance and minimises liabilities.
A joint venture is typically a temporary collaboration for a specific project or goal, while a partnership is an ongoing business arrangement between two or more parties. Both require clear agreements to define roles, contributions, and profit-sharing.
