What is an ABN?

An Australian Business Number (ABN) lets you work
and invoice legally in Australia.

An ABN is an 11-digit number that identifies you when working as a contractor or freelancer in Australia. You include it on every invoice you send.

With an ABN, you get paid the full amount with no tax withheld automatically. You stay in control of your income and manage your own tax.
