What does a registered BAS agent do?

In Australia, anyone who provides BAS services for a fee (preparing or lodging activity statements, managing GST, PAYG or superannuation obligations) must be registered as a BAS agent with the Tax Practitioners Board. Many bookkeepers hold BAS agent registration so they can lodge on your behalf. Registration means they meet qualification, experience and professional-conduct requirements, and carry professional indemnity insurance.
