ASIC late fee calculator
Miss the annual review date and ASIC adds a late fee. Go past a month and it jumps to a much larger one. The review fee itself is unchanged, so the whole difference is avoidable.
| You choose | how late the payment is and your company type. |
|---|---|
| It applies | ASIC's two-tier late fee — one band up to a month, a much larger one beyond it — on top of the annual review fee itself. |
| You get | the total payable, so the cost of drift is a number rather than a vague worry. These fees index every 1 July. |
A worked example
Pay an annual review a month late and ASIC adds the first-tier fee; go past a month and it jumps to the second tier, several times larger. The review fee itself is unchanged — the late fee is pure avoidable cost.
Total payable (review fee + late fee)
- Annual review fee
- $342.00
- Late fee
- $102.00
- Total payable
- $444.00
Late fees are $102 up to 1 month late and $428 beyond that. Review fees shown are $342 for a proprietary company and $70 for a special purpose proprietary company.
An estimate, not a quote. ASIC produces the figure that actually applies to you — check there before you rely on a number. The fee on your actual annual statement or invoice governs — this does not include the separate late fee for notifying incorrect annual-statement details, or strike-off risk if a company stays unpaid.
What this deliberately leaves out
Deregistration action under s601AA/601AB, late fee waivers for circumstances beyond your control, and fees for any document other than the annual review itself are not modelled here. All four figures index on 1 July each year, so they move annually — verified 2026-08-17 against asic.gov.au.
What to do with this number: The amount printed on the annual statement ASIC issues is the one that governs. These fees index every 1 July, so a figure you saved last year is probably already stale.
