    Australia Incorporation FAQs for United States-Based Founders

    Can a person or company from United States own 100% of a Proprietary Limited Company (Pty Ltd) in Australia?

    In almost all cases, yes — Australia permits 1 shareholder (100% foreign ownership permitted), with no restriction based on the founder's country of origin, including United States.

    Do I need to travel from United States to Australia to incorporate?

    No, the entire process is handled remotely. We prepare, notarise or apostille (where required), and file all documents with the Australian Securities & Investments Commission (ASIC) on your behalf.

    How long does Proprietary Limited Company (Pty Ltd) registration in Australia take when applying from United States?

    Typical turnaround is 1–3 business days, though courier time for notarised documents from United States can add a few extra days depending on your location.

    What tax rate will my Australia company pay?

    Australia applies 25% (base rate entities) to 30% standard corporate tax rate; 10% GST on most goods & services. We review your structure to confirm the exact liability and identify any relief available under a tax treaty between Australia and United States.

    Can profits be repatriated from Australia back to United States?

    Yes, subject to Australia's standard dividend distribution rules. Where a double tax treaty exists between Australia and United States, we structure repatriation to take advantage of any available relief.
