- Non-profit organisations with GST turnover of $150,000 or more must register for GST and need an ABN to do this
- Entities seeking to be endorsed as a deductible gift recipient need an ABN to obtain that status
- Charities seeking exemption from income tax need an ABN.
Other eligible entities may choose to register for an ABN:
