Tax snapshot · 🇦🇺 AU
ABN: from $1 of intent. GST: A$75,000 / 12 months.
An Australian Business Number (ABN) is free and effectively required from the moment you intend to invoice. Without one, payers must withhold 47% PAYG. GST registration becomes mandatory the moment your rolling 12-month side-hustle turnover crosses A$75,000 (or A$150,000 for non-profits).
Members in this role typically add A$12,800/year.
Modeled on a conservative 4 hours/week of contract work at the role's implied hourly equivalent (A$64/hr). The Hustle Report Monday editorial finds the briefs and ranks them by fit so the time stays small.
