Business setup

Tax & GST
What happens if I miss a GST return?+

Trademark & IP
When can I use the ™ symbol?+

How long is a trademark valid?+
10 years from the filing date, and it can be renewed indefinitely every 10 years.
Can I trademark a name already in use by someone else?+
Usually not in the same class. That's why we run a search before filing.
Licences
Do I need a licence for a home-based food business?+
