    Apart from most building trades (Electrician, Builder, Plumber, Painter, Carpenter, Air/Con) which all require you to be licensed, certified and trained, other ones are Hair Dressers, Travel Agents, Immigration Agents, Real Estate Sales, Taxi Drivers, Financial Advisors, tax agents, accountants. All business should carry some form of general business insurance. If you run your business without a company (ie just an ABN and maybe a trade name) you are considered a Sole Trader and your business earnings are rolled into your personal income tax assessment, and your profits are taxed as income. If you 'incorporate' a Company, then the company pays any taxes, and the Directors (you) guarantee any tax liabilities. Companies cost between $1000-$3000 to setup, and there will also be annual accountancy fees, so for a small personal business (Uber, Cleaner, Tutor) its usually not worth the cost and effort to run a company, just an ABN and Sole Trader is good enough. Just a warning to any prospective immigrant, getting caught not paying your taxes, earning cash under the counter or defrauding the ATO will adversely affect your residency/citizen applications. Being a good Australian is to pay your taxes, follow the law and being open and honest with the Government.

    Summery: You can do a self-employed business with ABN (Free) with maintaining Tax Return regulations. Anyway, you can start a company with an Australian citizen. Some business examples are : ride sharing, food delivery services, cleaning business, tutoring business, photograph, painting, selling products. However, you must be aware about not to exceed the 40 hours working limit as a student. Another thing is you need to pay Tax for GST.

      Yes, we have checked it with many sources and the information is correct that one of the director must be Australian resident. We did not say Australian citizen anywhere. Here is an article to read about it as a reference: lawpath.com.au/blog/can-company-director-not-australian-citizen
