You\u2019ll need to gain 1400 hours of relevant work experience from xperienced professionals who are registered BAS Agents. You can volunteer, intern, or start as an entry-level bookkeeper to acquire the necessary knowledge. Once you have gained experience and become familiar with GST and BAS procedures, you can apply to the Tax Practitioners Board to become a registered BAS Agent. Although not required for a bookkeeping career, having this qualification will improve your chances of success.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_toggle][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243;
