Business set-up in Australia
Most new businesses apply for an Australian Business Number (ABN) through the Australian Business Register and register a business name with ASIC. Check GST registration rules with the Australian Taxation Office and any council approvals for outdoor sites. This is general information, not legal advice.
Heat, strong UV and coastal salt air are the main hardware risks; shade outdoor units and choose corrosion-resistant finishes near the coast.
