Today's question: When is my BAS actually due? The short answer: Quarterly BAS is generally due 28 days after the quarter ends — with the December quarter pushed out to 28 February. Lodging through a registered BAS or tax agent usually buys you an extra four weeks. Monthly lodgers get 21 days after month end, no extension.

Rules change, thresholds move, and deadlines don't wait. If BAS time is always a scramble, it's worth a conversation.

RBizz Corporate Accountants — Global CFO accountants helping businesses rise. Tax, BAS & GST, payroll and super, company structures, bookkeeping, cash flow and virtual CFO support for SMEs across Australia.

General information only — not personal tax advice.

The registration itself takes days. The consequences of getting the structure wrong last years.

𝗪𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗲𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱𝗹𝘆:
• The wrong entity type chosen for how the business will actually trade
• Director residency requirements missed until ASIC follows up
• GST, PAYG or TFN registrations done late, or not at all
• A registered office and address arrangement that doesn't hold up
• Bank account opening stalled because the documentation isn't right
• No local accounting process in place once trading begins

Each one is fixable. Together they delay revenue — and unwinding a structure after the fact costs far more than setting it up properly.

RBizz handles the whole sequence as one engagement: company formation, ASIC registrations and compliance, tax registrations, registered office and director requirements, bank account support, and the accounting function that runs from day one. All of it through registered ASIC and Tax Agents, with every output supervised by a qualified CA or CPA.
You get one team, one point of contact, and a business that's compliant before it starts trading — not corrected afterwards.
Whether you're an overseas group establishing an Australian arm or a local founder incorporating properly for the first time, the structure decision comes first.
If you're planning an Australian entity, it's worth a conversation before you register. Complimentary setup consultation — no obligation.

Profit is recorded when you invoice. Cash arrives when the client pays. In between sit wages, stock, GST and super — all payable on time, regardless.

𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗮 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮 𝗣&𝗟 𝗰𝗮𝗻'𝘁:
1️⃣ When the tight weeks are, before they arrive
2️⃣ Whether growth is affordable — more sales usually consume cash before returning it.
3️⃣ How much headroom you actually have to hire, buy or expand.
A rolling 13-week forecast is enough for most businesses. Not a budget, not a projection — just what's coming in and going out, week by week, updated weekly.

At RBizz, we build and maintain cash-flow forecasting alongside your reporting, so pressure is visible early enough to act on.

Only finding out about cash pressure when it hits? Talk to our team.
