Get a Tax File Number (TFN) in Australia
Tax File Number (TFN) – What is it?
The TFN is a unique and personal 9-digit number issued by the Australian authorities. This number allows you to be registered with the Australian Tax Office (ATO). It is an important part of your tax and super records as well as your identity, so keep it secure. You must provide this number to your employer in order to work legally in Australia.
The number does not change and is assigned for life (it does not matter whether you change your name, visa, address, move interstate or go overseas, etc). You don’t have to have a TFN, but without one you pay more tax. You also won’t be able to apply for government benefits, lodge your tax return electronically or get an Australian business number (ABN).
How to get a TFN?
The TFN can be obtained by applying online at the Australian Tax Office (ATO) website. It is free of cost. Following your request, you will receive a reference number that you can use while waiting to receive your final TFN. It will be sent within 28 days to the postal address provided in your application.
ATO Website: https://www.ato.gov.au/Individuals/Tax-file-number/
What are the Documents required for the application?
Passport
Postal Address in Australia
Australian Telephone Number
Valid Email Address
To apply for a TFN will depend on your circumstances (choose appropriate option):
Now you must fill out the form online. Once the ATO has processed your application, they will send a TFN notification letter to the Australian postal address you have provided.

Simran and Visa Info Team have been the great support throughout my Australian Student visa grant journey. Their experience and expertise in the field is indeed the BEST. I definitely recommend them to all those who are looking forward for their Australian journey. They make it happen!
I had a complicated situation for visa application. VISAINFO (especially Amit) guided and prepared my documents and assisted me at every step. Whatever queries he had raised prior to my application submission (which I had ignored), were exactly the issues raised by IMMI. Once relevant documents related to those queries were submitted, it was just a matter of time. I would highly recommend anyone to use their services. Amit’s prompt response and guidance, really smoothens the whole experience.Thanks again, Visa Info and Amit.

Mr Amit Baijal, Mrs Simran Baijal and his TEAM have been the best support throughout my visa grant journey. Their experience and expertise in the field of migration services is indeed the BEST you can get in Australia and I am saying this by my own experience. They know exactly what documents are needed and for which occupation. They will make sure that all documents are perfectly scrutinized and then submitted so there is no chance of any query or rejection from the officials. I would forever be grateful to them for my successful residency grant at the age of 40. God Bless them!
