What Sydney trustees pay to establish an SMSF

SMSF establishment is federal, so there is no NSW stamp duty on the SMSF deed itself. The two cost levers are individual vs corporate trustee, and whether you need bare-trust documentation for an LRBA property purchase.

For most Sydney trustees, a corporate trustee is the better long-term choice — cleaner asset separation, easier member changes if the membership shifts, and lower personal penalty exposure if the ATO ever issues an administrative penalty.

  • Trust deed and product disclosure statement
  • ATO registrations: TFN, ABN, regulated super fund election
  • ASIC corporate trustee registration (optional, $636)
  • Investment strategy compliant with reg 4.09
  • Macquarie / ANZ / CBA / NAB / Westpac bank account assistance
  • Digital trustee declarations — no printing, no in-person meetings
