Do I need to register for GST?

A quick guide based on your GST turnover (gross income, not profit). The final call is always the ATO's.

I drive taxi, rideshare or ride-sourcing

Registration looks optional for nowYou're below the 75,000 threshold, so GST registration is optional. You can still register voluntarily to claim GST credits.

How the GST threshold works

Most businesses must register once GST turnover reaches $75,000.
Not-for-profit organisations have a higher $150,000 threshold.
Taxi, rideshare and ride-sourcing must register from the first dollar.
Once you must register, you have 21 days to do it.
Below the threshold you can register voluntarily to claim GST credits.

Heads upThese thresholds are general and can change. Confirm your obligations with the ATO or a registered tax agent.
