Who needs director ID

information keeps changing.

Before we were told that anyone who is and WAS a director in their life time needs to apply (order ref 101 1066, call ref# 105 205 913 663 9)

But then the day after they release a draft rule (not yet law) allowing former and resigned directors to be exempt from applying for director ID

We say its best to get it done

If you live in Australia...

Call 1300 287 539 and select option 2.
