      You must apply, in the *approved form, to be *registered under this Act if:

      (a) you are not registered under this Act; and

      (b) you are *required to be registered.

      You must make your application within 21 days after becoming required to be registered.

      25-5 When the Commissioner must register you

      (1) The Commissioner must *register you if:

      (a) you have applied for registration in an *approved form; and

      (b) the Commissioner is satisfied that you are *carrying on an *enterprise, or you intend to carry on an enterprise from a particular date specified in your application.

      Note: Refusing to register you under this subsection is a reviewable GST decision (see Subdivision 110-F in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953).

      (2) The Commissioner must *register you (even if you have not applied for registration) if the Commissioner is satisfied that you are *required to be registered.

      Note: Registering you under this subsection is a reviewable GST decision (see Subdivision 110-F in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953).

      (3) The Commissioner must notify you in writing of any decision he or she makes in relation to you under this section. If the Commissioner decides to register you, the notice must specify the following:

      (a) the date of effect of your registration;

      (b) your registration number;

      (c) the tax periods that apply to you.

      25–10 The date of effect of your registration

      (1) The Commissioner must decide the date from which your *registration takes effect, or took effect. However:

      (a) if you did not apply for registration and the Commissioner is satisfied that you are *required to be registered — the date of effect must not be a day before the day on which you became required to be registered; or

      (b) if you applied for registration — the date of effect must not be a day before:

      (i) the day specified in your application; or

      (ii) if the Commissioner is satisfied that you became required to be registered on an earlier day — the day that the Commissioner is satisfied is that earlier day; or

      (c) if you are being registered only because you intend to *carry on an *enterprise — the date of effect must not be a day before the day specified, in your application for registration, as the day from which you intend to carry on the enterprise.

      Note: Deciding the date of effect of your registration is a reviewable GST decision (see Subdivision 110-F in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953).

      (2) The *Australian Business Registrar must enter in the *Australian Business Register the date on which your *registration takes or took effect.

      25–15 Effect of backdating your registration

      If the Commissioner decides under section 25–10, as the date of effect of your *registration (your registration day), a day before the day of the decision, then you are taken:

      (a) for the purpose of determining whether a supply you made on or after your registration day was a *taxable supply; and

      (b) for the purpose of determining whether an acquisition you made on or after that day was a *creditable acquisition; and

      (c) for the purpose of determining whether an importation you made on or after that day was a *creditable importation;

      to have been registered from and including your registration day.

      Note: This section ensures that backdating your registration enables your supplies and acquisitions made on or after the date of effect to be picked up by the GST system. Section 25–10 limits the extent to which your registration can be backdated.
