9A Applying for registration of representatives
(1) If *you are registered in the *Australian Business Register, or you are applying to be so registered, you may make an application to the *Registrar requesting the Registrar to register details about a nominated representative (who is an individual) for the purpose of facilitating your electronic dealings with *government entities. (2) An application must be in the *approved form. (3) That form may request, but not compel, the provision of: (a) the *TFN of the representative; and (b) the TFN of the individual (the nominating individual) who is to sign the declaration in the form.
Note: Including a TFN in an application will not be an offence against subsection 8WB(1) of the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (see paragraph 8WB(1A)(a) of that Act).
