Foreign Company Services

Apart from our regular services, Jirsch Reilly Tang has developed expertise in:

  • International relations and business dealings in Australia - we hold directorship positions for a number of overseas-owned (predominantly French and German) companies.
  • Taxation and other services for non-resident investors in Australia.
 

Jirsch Reilly Tang can offer a "one-stop shop" service to your business set-up in Australia

  • Business set-up and representation in Australia for overseas owned companies.
  • Salary packaging advice and taxation return preparation and lodgment services for temporary residents to Australia (e.g. in-bound expatriate executives particularly from France).
  • We work closely with a French-speaking migration legal practice providing services to both corporate and visiting temporary residents (particularly from France).
  • Referral to internationally-orientated and reputable solicitors (and French-speaking if preferred) for contract establishment and other legal services needed in Australia.
 

Business Set-up and Representation in Australia For Overseas Companies

  • Local directorship representation (every Australian company must, by law, have a local resident director).
  • Public officer representation (every Australian company must have a Public Officer, to act as the nominated person in dealings with the ATO (Australian Taxation Office).
  • Bank account set-up assistance and account signatory services (if required).
  • Assistance, either directly, or through other experts, with leasing of business premises, insurance, local staff appointments, etc.
  • Management of payables and receivables and invoicing.
  • Payroll function - including salary "packaging" with concessionary tax benefits.
  • Management accounting, reporting and tailoring of a Chart of Accounts to your requirements.
  • Corporate secretarial services - the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC) requires all companies (and branches) to lodge a variety of documents and maintain certain registers. In Australia, ASIC-registered agents do not have to be solicitors as would be the case in European countries, and can offer a corporate secretarial service competitively priced which would include acting as a registered office, maintaining the local corporate registers for members (shareholders) and directors, maintaining minute books and filing all ASIC lodgments by the due dates.
 

Salary Packaging for "Temporary Residents"

Currently, the Australian Government, in order to attract skilled migrants to work on temporary assignments (generally up to 4 years in duration) offers valuable tax concessions to "temporary tax residents" including non-assessment of their non Australian-sourced non-work related income while they live here.

Furthermore, if the salary package for the person or persons sent to Australia are carefully structured, there can be a significant amount paid to them by way of tax-free allowances to cover their rental costs, some food costs and even air-fare costs to return on annual leave to their home countries.

We have the expertise to advise in this area and understand the best way to structure the renumeration packages of expatriate "temporary residents".

French Speaking

We operate bilingually in English and French.

Rick Jirsch parle couramment le français et est membre de la Chambre de Commerce France-Australie. Rick travaille non seulement, actuellement avec beaucoup de clients français (sociétés et particuliers) et est directeur local pour plusieurs filiales françaises, mais également avec un réseau de réseau de professionnels locaux (avocats et agents d’immigration qui eux aussi parlent français) ce qui lui permet d’offrir les services essentiels en Australie pour les français qui arrivent dans ce pays. De plus, il a beaucoup de clients néo-calédoniens et tahitiens qui ont acheté des biens immobiliers ici à Sydney et qui ont besoin de faire leur déclaration fiscale annuelle.
