Understanding the service
An OPC is a company structure for an eligible single member, with the required nominee and company records. We review suitability before preparing incorporation documents.
Compare the structure with your plans
An OPC is not simply a proprietorship with a new name. Consider the company framework, proposed ownership and future investment plans. Review the current eligibility and nominee requirements before choosing the structure, particularly where citizenship or residency facts need checking.
Treat the nominee and records seriously
Collect accurate nominee consent and supporting details through the approved process. Keep incorporation records, accounts and later changes organised. Having one member does not mean the company is free of annual reporting or professional engagement requirements.
Preparation checklist
Use this as a starting file, not a universal eligibility decision. ACS confirms the final checklist against your actual entity, activity and reporting period.
- Applicant or entity identification
- Existing registration records, if applicable
- Address and authorised signatory details
- Service-specific documents confirmed after review
Keep originals and final versions distinguishable. Record missing information before submission and use the agreed private channel for sensitive evidence.
From enquiry to agreed work
- Share the requirement and relevant reporting period.
- ACS reviews the records and confirms the scope and charges.
- Preparation, review and authorised filing or delivery.
- Receive completion records and the next-step checklist.
A company-based route for a qualifying single-owner business. Timing depends on the supplied records, applicable process and external review. No authority decision or processing date is guaranteed.
ACS professional fee
Government fees, taxes, provider charges and additional professional work are separate unless the written quote says otherwise. The listed fee is not a grant, tax, contribution or licence payment. Online payments remain inactive.
Frequently asked questions
Can an OPC ignore company compliance because it has one owner?
No. Applicable obligations remain; available exemptions or different procedures need a case-specific review.
Is conversion to another structure included?
No automatic inclusion. A later ownership or structure change requires a separate review and scope.
What does the listed professional fee include?
The ACS fee covers only the work confirmed in your quote. Government fees, taxes, provider or certification-body charges and additional professional work are separate unless expressly included. Booking does not activate an online payment.
What should I share for the first discussion?
Start with your requirement and the relevant period or project. The callback form needs only your name and mobile number. Share identity, banking or financial documents only through the agreed private workflow.
