How Much Does LinkedIn Premium Cost in Australia?

LinkedIn does not publish an Australian price list. The AUD figure exists in exactly one place — your own signed-in checkout — and 10% GST lands on Australian customers, ABN or not. This page gives you the dated US-dollar list, the 30-second way to read your real AUD number, and the route that costs less than either: activation on your own account from $25.

The starting point

The Only List LinkedIn Publishes Is in US Dollars

Search for an Australian price and you will find blogs quoting AUD figures with no date and no source. LinkedIn itself publishes no Australian price list — its public plan pages quote US dollars, and the AUD amount an Australian account actually pays appears only inside that account. So here is the one list we can honestly print, read from LinkedIn’s own pages on 21 August 2026, next to what the same plans cost through activation on your own account:

The Only List LinkedIn Publishes Is in US Dollars
PlanLinkedIn USD list (read 21 Aug 2026)Through Searcora activation (USD)
Premium Career$39.99/mofrom $25
Premium Business$69.99/mofrom $30
Sales Navigator Core$119.99/mo$30/mo
Sales Navigator Advanced$159.99/mofrom $30 (1–12 month terms)
Recruiter Lite$170/mo$50/mo

Both columns are US dollars on purpose. LinkedIn’s AUD figures are unpublished, and Searcora’s service prices are set in USD for every country — a converted “A$ price” from us would go stale with the exchange rate. If you already know your plan and term, message us on WhatsApp and skip the rest of this page.

Your real number

The 30-Second AUD Check

The AUD price that applies to you is not hidden — it is just personal. LinkedIn shows it to your account, not to the open web:

  1. Sign in to your own LinkedIn account — not a blog, not a screenshot from last year.
  2. Open linkedin.com/premium/products, LinkedIn’s own plans page.
  3. Read the price shown at that step. If your account is billed in AUD, that A$ figure — monthly and annual toggles both — is your real list price. GST is settled at checkout.
Three steps to see the real Australian-dollar price of LinkedIn Premium: sign in to your own account, open the official premium products page, and read the A$ figure shown there
The only AUD figure that binds is the one your own signed-in account shows — plus 10% GST at checkout.

This is the same method our India pricing page uses, and for the same reason: any third-party AUD number is either a currency conversion (LinkedIn does not price by conversion — regional lists are set separately, as the gap between the published UK sterling list and the USD list shows) or a stale screenshot. The method cannot go stale.

The tax

GST: 10%, ABN or Not

This part is documented, so we can be precise. LinkedIn’s tax help page (read 28 August 2026) states that GST is charged to all Australian customers, whether or not they hold an ABN, because LinkedIn bills Australia through a Singapore entity with a fixed establishment for Australian GST purposes. The rate is 10%.

Two practical consequences. First, whatever AUD figure your checkout shows, confirm whether the line total already includes GST before you compare plans — LinkedIn’s help page does not say whether displayed prices are inclusive, which is one more reason the checkout total is the only binding number. Second, LinkedIn’s billing help describes an “I’m purchasing as a business” checkbox at payment where a tax registration number can be added so it prints on the receipt — useful for your records, but for Australia the GST is charged either way. Whether your business can claim it back is a question for your accountant, not for a pricing page.

The decision

Which Plan Makes Sense From Australia

The plan question is the same in Australia as everywhere else; only the tax and the currency differ. Premium Career is for the job market side — who viewed you, InMail to recruiters, applicant insights. Premium Business adds unlimited people browsing and business insights for people running or selling for a company. If what you actually want is a prospecting tool — lead lists, saved searches, decision-maker filters — neither Premium tier is the right buy: that is Sales Navigator, covered below.

Before paying for any of them, the worth-it test applies unchanged: Premium pays for itself only if the thing it unlocks is the thing blocking you. A free month is usually available to accounts that have not trialled recently — check the same signed-in plans page; if a trial shows, take it before paying anyone, us included. And if the full list price is what puts you off, that is the problem activation from $25 exists to solve.

For sellers

Sales Navigator From Australia

Australian searches for Sales Navigator pricing outnumber almost everything else in this topic, and the answer has the same shape: the USD list says $119.99/mo for Core and $159.99/mo for Advanced (read 21 August 2026), your AUD figure lives at your own checkout, and 10% GST applies. The full term-by-term breakdown — monthly versus annual, Core versus Advanced — is on the Sales Navigator price page.

Through activation, Core is $30/mo and Advanced runs $30, $90, $170 or $340 for 1, 3, 6 or 12 months — on your own account, with the seat sent to your own email. If you are weighing whether a third-party route is safe at all, the vetting questions we tell people to ask any seller — including us — are published.

The cheaper route

Activation on Your Own Account, From $25

Searcora activates LinkedIn Premium, Sales Navigator and Recruiter Lite on the account you already have. The seat invitation goes to your own email and you accept it yourself — we never ask for your password, and nothing about your login changes. Activation typically completes within about 24 hours and includes 30 days of support.

For Australian buyers specifically: prices are in USD (Career from $25, Business from $30, Sales Navigator Core $30/mo, Recruiter Lite $50/mo), payment is by Wise, Payoneer or bank transfer, and the process is identical for Australian accounts — the seat attaches to your account wherever it is registered. Since the payment goes to us rather than through LinkedIn’s Australian checkout, LinkedIn’s GST line does not apply to what you pay us.

Honesty

What We Do Not Know About Australian Pricing

We do not know your AUD list price, and we will not pretend to. LinkedIn sets regional prices separately, changes them without an announcement, and shows Australia its numbers only inside Australian accounts. Any page that prints exact AUD figures is asking you to trust an undated screenshot — the same failure we refuse on the main pricing page.

We also do not know the AUD size of the annual-billing discount. In every published list we can read, annual billing is cheaper per month than monthly billing, but the exact gap differs by currency — so check both toggles at your own checkout before choosing a term. What we do know is dated above: the USD list, the 10% GST rule, and our own prices.

Tell us the plan and the term

You get the dollar total before you pay anything, and a straight answer about timing. If Premium will not change what you can do right now, we will tell you not to buy.

Common Questions

LinkedIn does not publish an AUD price list. Its USD list, read 21 August 2026, is $39.99/mo for Premium Career and $69.99/mo for Premium Business on monthly billing; your AUD figure appears at your own signed-in checkout, with 10% GST applying to Australian customers. Through Searcora, activation on your own account starts at $25.
Yes. LinkedIn's tax help page, read 28 August 2026, says GST is charged to all Australian customers whether or not they hold an ABN, because LinkedIn bills Australia through a Singapore entity registered for Australian GST. The rate is 10%.
Only inside your own account. LinkedIn's public plan pages quote US dollars; the AUD amount you would actually pay is shown once you are signed in, on the premium products page and at checkout. That signed-in figure is the only one worth trusting.
The USD list read 21 August 2026 is $119.99/mo for Sales Navigator Core and $159.99/mo for Advanced, with your AUD price shown at your own checkout plus 10% GST. Through Searcora activation, Core is $30/mo and Advanced is $30 to $340 depending on the term, on your own account.
LinkedIn charges the 10% GST regardless of ABN. At payment, a business checkbox lets you record a tax registration number so it appears on the receipt. Whether the GST is then claimable for your business is a question for your accountant.
In every price list LinkedIn publishes, annual billing costs less per month than monthly billing, but the size of the gap differs by currency and LinkedIn does not publish the AUD figures. Check both the monthly and annual toggles at your own signed-in checkout before choosing a term.
