If you are engaging a contractor to perform work for you make sure that prior to committing yourself that you check out their Australian Business Number (ABN) to ensure that they have the required registrations e.g. ABN, GST Status and How Trading.
\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n\n
If your contractor is a company it would be wise to check out their bona fides with ASIC before contracting them, again, taking particular note of their required registrations e.g. ABN, GST Status, Company Registration Status and any other business names that they conduct.
\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n\n
Should a contractor not supply you with an ABN number care should be taken to ensure that Withholding Tax of 49% is deducted from your payment to the contractor and shown at W4 on your next Business Activity Statement in accordance with Australian Taxation Law. If this situation occurs we suggest that you click here for answers from the ATO.

If you're unsure about this question please give your tax accountant a call.
