Business premises registration

A small annual charge from your state for each place you trade from. Easy to forget, and the one they turn up about.

What it is

Your state charges a registration fee on business premises — shops, offices, workshops. It's paid the first year you open and renewed each year after, usually for less.

The amounts are small next to VAT or PAYE. The reason it matters is enforcement: it's a physical, visible obligation, and a team can arrive at the door about it.

One per place, not one per business

Two shops in the same state is two registrations. A branch in another state is that state's registration, on their terms.

How BizBrada handles it

It sits in your compliance calendar under your state's revenue service, once a year, with the year on it.

When you've paid it, mark it registered and it goes quiet until next year. We don't chase you about it in between.
