BAS agent services

Registered BAS agent for Canberra small businesses

A BAS is only as good as the books behind it. We prepare yours from reconciled Xero books, send it to you to approve, and lodge it with the ATO as your registered BAS agent.

What's included

  • Check GST coding on every transaction before the BAS is prepared
  • Prepare your BAS and send it to you to review and approve
  • Lodge it with the ATO on your behalf
  • Tell you what's payable and when, so it's never a surprise
  • Manage PAYG withholding and PAYG instalments

Why it's worth getting right

Rushed numbers can mean paying too much GST, or too little and fixing it later. Late lodgement can attract penalties, and since 1 July 2025 the ATO's interest charges are no longer tax deductible.

Why use a registered BAS agent

  • Only a registered BAS agent or tax agent can prepare and lodge your BAS for a fee
  • Lodging through a registered agent may give you more time on some BAS due dates
  • We follow the Tax Practitioners Board's Code of Professional Conduct
  • You can check our registration on the public TPB register: [TPB number]

Monthly or quarterly BAS

Most small businesses lodge quarterly, and quarterly BAS is included in every package. If you lodge monthly, we can do that too.

Behind on your BAS?

Overdue BAS is more common than you'd think. We bring your books up to date first, then prepare and lodge what's outstanding, and tell you plainly what's owed.

Common questions

What does a BAS agent do?

A BAS agent prepares and lodges your business activity statement and deals with the ATO on BAS matters for you. That covers GST, PAYG withholding and PAYG instalments.

Do I need a BAS agent or an accountant?

For your BAS, a registered BAS agent is enough. For tax returns and tax advice, you need a registered tax agent, usually your accountant. Many small businesses use both, and we work alongside your accountant.

How much does a BAS agent cost?

Quarterly BAS is included in all our monthly packages. See our pricing page for the details.

What do you need from me?

Access to your Xero file, and any receipts or invoices that aren't in it yet. We'll tell you if anything is missing.
