ARBN Application for an Incorporated Association

An Incorporated Association is a structure used by organisations with a recreational, cultural or charitable purpose. If you want to run the association like a company, this structure may suit you. Incorporated Associations are regulated by your state or territory, so they are generally more suitable for smaller organisations. They also have a separate legal identity, like a standard company, which means liability is limited when entering into transactions.

ARBN stands for Australian Registered Body Number. ASIC usually issues ARBNs to eligible bodies, including foreign companies that want to operate in Australia. There is a specific process for applying for an ARBN, so it’s important to speak with a legal professional to avoid mistakes.

Our package starts from $1,200 + GST. It includes an initial consultation with a Sprintlaw lawyer, preparation of Form 401 to apply for an ARBN with ASIC, and preparation of Form 911 to provide a certified copy of your organisation’s Constitution.

We operate completely online, so we can help you wherever you are. Our lawyers in Australia and the UK are ready to assist. Our online lawyers can help with a range of legal matters, from drafting Privacy Policies to setting up an ESOP or setting up a subsidiary company. Get in touch today for a consultation.
