AML/CTF Tranche 2 · Reporting Entity Briefing
AML compliance,
done for you.
Join the @realty Designated Business Unit and we'll handle your customer due diligence, AUSTRAC reporting, audits, training and registers — so you can stay focused on selling property.
AML/CTF obligations commence Wednesday 1 July 2026 for all Australian real estate agents.
Enrolment with AUSTRAC opens 31 March 2026.
Why you're reading this
Every real estate agent in Australia becomes a "reporting entity" on 1 July 2026.
From that date, real estate professionals are captured by the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (Cth). Every agency must enrol with AUSTRAC, run customer due diligence on buyers and sellers, maintain registers, and lodge reports. The @realty DBU lets you meet those obligations as part of a group rather than building your own compliance program from scratch.
