Setting Up a Foreign-Owned Pty Ltd: Step-by-Step Checklist

Step-by-Step Checklist

Reserve your company name with BIPA, prepare the Memorandum of Incorporation, and compile director and shareholder documentation. For foreign owners, include apostilled passports and proof of address.

Banking & NAMRA Registration

After incorporation, register with NAMRA for tax and open a corporate bank account. Banks perform enhanced KYC for foreign parents — expect additional documentary requests.

Local Compliance

Ensure SSC registration for employees and prepare annual duties to maintain BIPA good standing.
