Business Activity Statements or BAS must be lodged with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) on a regular basis in order to avoid interest and penalties. Our Sydney Tax Accountants and Sydney accountants regularly assist clients prepare and lodge BAS. BAS is a means by which businesses report and meet a number of tax obligations.
