Compare Australian tax
Whether you're moving to Australia, weighing up a structure, or working out which state to set up in, these comparisons lay the numbers out plainly. Everything here is free, statute-grounded, and built for people who actually pay the tax.
Australia vs other countries
- Australia vs UK
Income tax bands, GST vs VAT, super vs auto-enrolment, and what changes for a self-employed person moving between the two.
- Australia vs USA
Sole trader vs LLC, GST vs sales tax, self-employment tax vs PAYG and super, and the residency traps that catch movers.
- Australia vs New Zealand
GST on both sides of the Tasman, company rates, the Australia-NZ tax treaty, and trans-Tasman super portability.
Compare within Australia
- State tax comparison
Stamp duty, land tax and payroll tax compared across all eight states and territories.
- Sole trader vs company vs trust
Model company tax with franking credits, discretionary trust distributions and bucket-company streaming side by side.
- Business structures explained
The plain-English version of each structure — when a company or trust actually helps, and when it just adds cost.
Comparisons are general information, not personal tax advice. Cross-border tax turns on residency and your specific facts — check your situation with a registered tax agent before acting.
