No links or advice, but a second question. Do you have to be on a business visa in order to start or buy a business or franchise? Just trying to keep our options open!

ABN = Australian Business Number

I've just posted a few links below. The first one I've used the others are a sample of what comes up from Google - just try "small business australia", "small business perth" and other variations in the search box.

http://www.businessaccess.vic.gov.au.../pages/sbvhome

http://www.qualitybusinessinstitute....Australia.html

http://www.canterbury.nsw.gov.au/lib...e/business.htm

http://www.buscorp.com.au/

Good luck.

'No worries mate'.

I once made up and taught a course in setting up and running a small business (in the TAFE college at Bendigo in Victoria). I went down to the Small Business Unit of the Victorian Government in Melbourne, as it was called then, and they were incredibly helpful. I went back to the college with literally a bootful of information on how to set up and run your own business which provided most of the materials for the short course.

The first website I pointed you to is for the same unit under its new name. I would expect similar sites in WA and the other states. They fall over themselves to help you because, as the director said to me at the time, those establishing small businesseswill be paying taxes and often employing people who pay taxes and don't draw benefits!
