I have received an invoice from a supplier where their ABN is recorded, but none of the trading entities are recorded on the invoice EXCEPT for their bank account name. I don't believe this "counts" as having the business name for the ABN but the supplier does? Can you please advise
You could always ask them to redo the invoice and put the name next to the ABN.
You can check ATO's page to see if it has all the features of a valid tax invoice. If it doesn't match any business names, trading names (this one i think is getting removed this year) or the entity name for the ABN, then I would be more leaning towards it's not a valid tax invoice. Should check the ABN lookup for the different names.

Thanks - i'd already done that. The supplier is claiming as it's written (in tiniest font) for the bank account name that they're meeting the requirements.... hence my query
