Sole Trader Setup Overview
We help individuals and small teams establish their businesses as either a Sole Trader or a Partnership, two of the most straightforward business structures in Australia.
Sole Trader is a business owned and operated by one person. You’re in full control and personally responsible for all aspects of the business, including profits, losses and liabilities.
Partnership is a business run by two or more people who share responsibilities, profits and obligations based on a formal or informal agreement.
Why Sole Trader & Partnership Matters
Starting without the right structure can lead to tax issues, legal liabilities, or unnecessary admin headaches.
We help you:
-
Choose the right structure that suits your goals and risk appetite
-
Stay compliant with Australian Taxation Office (ATO) requirements
-
Avoid penalties from incorrect or delayed registration
-
Understand your legal and financial responsibilities from the start
