Australia has introduced a rule that every person who acts as a director of an Australian company must be verified as a real person. EVERY person who acts as a director, whether an Australian resident or living overseas, must obtain a director identification number by the Australian Business Registry Services.
This must be done by no later than 30 November 2022.
To apply, go to: www.abrs.gov.au (Welcome to Australian Business Registry Services | Australian Business Registry Services (ABRS)). There is a link to apply form that site. You will need a scan of your passport.
You could have your accountant or lawyer do this for you, but it is relatively simple to apply. Also, it is probably better that less people have a copy of your passport in this day and age of identity theft and hacking.
