AUSTRAC issues notices to non-enrolled businesses
AUSTRAC has begun issuing section 167 notices to businesses providing designated services without enrolling under Australia’s anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing laws. These notices require entities such as real estate agents, accountants, lawyers, and jewellers to provide information to determine if they are meeting their obligations under the AML/CTF Act. The regulatory expansion covering these sectors took effect on 1 July 2026.
