Company tax rates apply to entities which include:
companies
corporate unit trusts
public trading trusts.
The full company tax rate of 30% applies to all companies that are not eligible for the lower company tax rate. Eligibility for the lower company tax rate depends on whether you are a base rate entity from the 2017–18 income year and onwards.

The full company tax rate of 30% applies to all companies that are not eligible for the lower company tax rate. Eligibility for the lower company tax rate depends on whether you are a base rate entity from the 2017–18 income year and onwards.
From the 2021–22 income year onwards, companies that are base rate entities must apply the 25% company tax rate. The rate was previously 27.5% from the 2017–18 to 2019–20 income years and 26% in the 2020–21 income year.
A company is a base rate entity for an income year if:
the company’s aggregated turnover for that income year is less than the aggregated turnover threshold for that income year, and
it has 80% or less of their assessable income in that income year that is base rate entity passive income – this replaces the requirement to be carrying on a business from the 2017–18 income year onwards.
The aggregated turnover threshold is $25 million for the 2017–18 income year and $50 million from the 2018–19 income year.
The aggregated turnover from any prior income year is irrelevant when working out if a company is a base rate entity for any particular income year.
Base rate entity passive income is:
corporate distributions and franking credits on these distributions
royalties and rent
interest income (some exceptions apply)
gains on qualifying securities
a net capital gain
an amount included in the assessable income of a partner in a partnership or a beneficiary of a trust, to the extent it is traceable (either directly or indirectly) to an amount that is otherwise base rate entity passive income.
