ICB Australia

ICB Australia ICB is a membership based not for profit organisation. We are bookkeepers helping bookkeepers.

Matthew Addison (ICB Australia's Executive Director) states: "The Institute of Certified Bookkeepers brings a certainty to the developing bookkeeping industry. Accountants, businesses and government seem to be looking for a structure to understand bookkeeping and the competence of bookkeepers. ICB will accredit, assist and inform bookkeepers and the community thereby increasing the structure and definition of the industry. ICB is a member based, not for profit, professional association: bookkeepers helping bookkeepers."

“Best ever!”

That was the feedback from the ICB Roadshow in Melbourne this week:
“Great content, good venue, location, amenities, food and overall organisation. And everyone I spoke with attending had the same comments!”

A huge thank you for the kind words, and to everyone who joined us in Melbourne.
With four Roadshows still to go around Australia over the next two weeks, there’s still time to be part of it.

If you’ve been thinking about joining us, we’d love to see you there.

ATO Credit Card Payments Extended Until June 2027

The ATO has confirmed it will continue accepting credit card payments for tax obligations until 30th June 2027, following discussions with the Government and the provision of transitional funding.

The extension provides businesses with more time to review their payment arrangements, while the ATO continues consulting on longer-term options.

ICB welcomes the reprieve, recognising the importance of flexible payment options for small businesses already managing financial pressures.

One of those Roadshow moments that’s worth hearing. 👏

Amanda’s “mic-drop” moment was a great reminder that while AI is changing how we work, the conversations around how we use it, and where human judgement still matters, are just as important.

And that’s exactly what the ICB Roadshow is about.
Practical insights, honest conversations and the chance to hear from people who understand what’s happening in the profession right now.

Darwin is now done, but there are still more stops to come around Australia.
If the Roadshow hasn’t reached your city yet, there’s still time to join us.

Register for your nearest ICB Roadshow and be part of the conversation.

What exactly does an Economic Futurist do, and why should Australian bookkeepers care?

In this special episode of the ICB News Channel Podcast, host Rob Marshall sits down with renowned Economic Futurist Evan Lucas ahead of his highly anticipated appearance at the ICB Australian Bookkeepers Summit, being held in Adelaide at the end of October 2026.

During this engaging conversation, Evan explains what it means to be an Economic Futurist and how global trends, emerging opportunities, technological change, and economic forces shape the future of Australian business. More importantly, he shines a spotlight on the critical role bookkeepers play in Australia's economic ecosystem.

Evan shares why bookkeepers are far more than compliance professionals. They are trusted advisers, financial interpreters, and essential contributors to the health and success of small and medium businesses across the country. From providing timely financial insights to helping business owners make informed decisions, bookkeepers influence the economic wellbeing of thousands of Australian enterprises every single day.

Rob and Evan explore the challenges and opportunities facing businesses in today's rapidly changing environment, including the impact of technology, productivity, workforce trends, and economic uncertainty. The discussion highlights why the bookkeeping profession has never been more important and why those attending the Summit can look forward to valuable insights from one of Australia's leading economic commentators.

Whether you're a bookkeeper, BAS Agent, accountant, or business adviser, this episode offers a fascinating preview of what to expect when Evan takes the stage in Adelaide.
Listen now and discover why understanding the future of the economy starts with understanding the vital role bookkeepers play in driving Australian business success.
