ASIC Annual Statement Services

Every Australian company has a legal obligation to keep its details up to date with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). One of the most important compliance requirements is the Annual Statement — a document issued each year on the anniversary of your company's registration. Trident Accounting offers a comprehensive ASIC Annual Statement service to ensure your business remains compliant, avoids penalties, and maintains good corporate standing.

What Is an ASIC Annual Statement?

Each year, ASIC sends your company an Annual Statement and an invoice for the annual review fee. This statement confirms your company's key details — including its registered office, principal place of business, officeholders (directors and secretaries), share structure, and company status.

You're legally required to:

  • Review the statement within 28 days of issue
  • Pay the ASIC annual review fee on time
  • Pass and record a solvency resolution
  • Notify ASIC of any changes (within strict deadlines)

Failure to comply can result in late fees, administrative penalties, and eventually deregistration of your company. Even if your company is not actively trading, these obligations still apply.

Why ASIC Compliance Matters

Maintaining up-to-date company records isn’t just a legal requirement — it also protects your business reputation, enables smooth dealings with banks or lenders, and avoids fines or legal complications.

Late review fees start at $93 and increase to $387 if you're more than a month overdue. Missed compliance for too long can even result in ASIC deregistering your company, whether you intended it or not.

If you’re already using us for tax, bookkeeping or business advisory, ASIC compliance can be bundled into a single support package. This is a great option for business owners who want a completely hands-off experience.
