Hi,

I’m close to earning over 75,000 this financial year. Half of those earnings are from YouTube (AdSense) advertising revenue. When your revenue is > 75,000, you’re meant to register for GST and charge 10% gst in your invoices, however, how does this work when I’m not actually invoicing Google each month as the amount varies?

There’s an old thread from 2011 that majority of people say you don’t have to as the income is from Google Ireland, but if I’m not mistaken, this is no longer the case and I get paid from Google Australia now.

So, what do you guys think? Should I be registering for GST or not? I don’t want to unless I have too, and I only tip over 75k if I include earnings from Adsense revenue.

Thanks in advanced
