Hi
No, you dont need a business license to sell your crafts at markets or to enter craft shows or exhibitions even if you sell.
cheers

as far as I know, you can earn a certain amount from your hobbies in oz before you need to register as a business.
I think if you are earning over $5000 profit every year, then you might need to declare something to the taxman?!

| I also do crafts at home for sale at local markets & as I receive a centrelink payment was concerned about whether I'd have to register as a business which would mean applying for an ABN. I was told that unless I earned over $6000 pa it wasn't necessary as no tax or GST applies to under this amount. A single person on benefit can earn over $60pw without affecting their payment but C/Link still has to be informed. If you are living in government housing this may mean an increase in rental but not to any significant degree. At least that's the rule in WA. Keep on crafting!!!
