It will deal with directors who are attempting to do the right thing in a reasonable manner.
A director ID is a one-time-use,
The director IDs are administered by the Australian Business Registry Services (ABRS), which is managed by the ATO.
You require a director ID if you are an eligible officer of: a corporation, an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander corporation registered under the Corporations.
An “eligible officer” is someone who has been appointed as a director or an alternate director who is operating in that capacity.
A director ID is also required if you are a director of corporate trustee, for instance, of an SMSF charity, not-for-profit organization that is a company, or Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander corporation registered body in Australia
If you serve as a company secretary but are not a director, act as an external administrator of a company, operate your business as a sole proprietor or partnership, or are a director of an incorporated association (without an ABRN) registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC), a director ID is not necessary.
In conclusion, it’s very possible that you are a director if you run a small business, are a corporate trustee of an SMSF, run a not-for-profit organisation, or even lead a sizable sporting club. As a result, you must apply for your director ID.
Online through the ABRS website, is the quickest and most convenient way to apply for a director ID.
