Each financial year ASIC indexes the fees applicable to register a new company as well as the annual review fees to keep a company registered. The ASIC fees applicable from 1 July 2025 are below.
ASIC annual review fees 2025
- Proprietary company – $329
- SMSF special purpose trustee company – $67
The ASIC fees 2025 have increased from $321 to $329 for a standard proprietary company and from $65 to $67 for an SMSF special purpose trustee company. These increases apply from 1 July 2025 for the 2025/26 financial year.
ASIC Annual Review Fees 2025
For most companies and schemes, their annual review date is the anniversary of their date of registration or incorporation.
ASIC company registration fees 2025
- Proprietary company – $611
The fee to register a standard proprietary company (including a company that will be the trustee of an SMSF) is increasing from $597 in 2024/25 to $611 from 1 July 2025. Grow SMSF will be increasing the fees to set up an SMSF with a special purpose trustee company to accommodate this change.
Increase in ASIC late fees
In addition to the increase in fees for setting up a new company, the fines for paying your ASIC company annual renewal fees are also increasing:
- ASIC late fee – less than 1 month: $98
- ASIC late fee – more than 1 month: $411
A good way to avoid late fees for your company is to pre-pay 10 years of ASIC annual review fees at once. The cost of upfront annual review fees (10 year prepayment) are also increasing from 1 July 2025:
- Proprietary company – $2,438
- SMSF special purpose trustee company – $463

Closing a company
When you wind up an SMSF that has a company trustee, you generally will deregister the special purpose trustee company. The ASIC fee for a voluntary deregistration for a company is increasing from $49 to $50 dollars from 1 July 2025.
