What happens if I don't have an ABN to invoice for a one-off job?

Hello, I'm after some advice.

I recently wrote an article for a newspaper and they are requesting my ABN in order to make payment. If I don't provide this, they will withhold tax (which I understand will be at the highest rate). I do have an old ABN that is no longer active, but I don't like my chances of having it reactivated, given that my income is mainly from my salaried job and this article was a one-off. What are the implications if I don't have an ABN? Will the tax be refunded at the EOFY as with other tax?
