Registered BAS Agents for BAS and IAS lodgement.
Prepared from your live Xero or QuickBooks file, lodged on time, and explained in plain English, for businesses across Sydney and the Central Coast.
What does a Registered BAS Agent do?
A Registered BAS Agent is registered with the Tax Practitioners Board to provide BAS services for a fee. We prepare your BAS from your accounting file, check it, lodge it with the ATO, and tell you what you owe and why.

Questions
Frequently asked.
Who is allowed to lodge my BAS for a fee?+
Only a registered BAS agent or tax agent, unless an exemption applies. You can check the rules on the Tax Practitioners Board website.
What is the difference between a BAS and an IAS?+
A BAS reports GST along with PAYG withholding and instalments. An IAS is used for PAYG instalment or withholding obligations when there is no GST to report. We check which one the ATO has issued you. See the ATO guidance on PAYG instalments.
When is my BAS due?+
It depends on whether you report monthly or quarterly, and due dates can differ when a registered agent lodges for you. We confirm your dates and remind you before each one.
Can you work with my accountant?+
Yes, when you authorise us to. We handle BAS services and bookkeeping; for income tax advice, speak to your tax agent.
Do you lodge BAS for businesses outside the Central Coast?+
Yes. We work remotely with businesses across Sydney, the Central Coast and the rest of Australia.
What do you need from me each quarter?+
Access to your accounting file, any missing receipts or invoices we flag, and answers to the questions we raise. With Dext or Hubdoc, most paperwork flows in automatically.
General information only, not tax advice. For tax questions, speak to your tax agent.
