FAQ 1 - Do I need to register to use the site?

If you wish to publish a notice on the website you must register as a user.  Only registered users can lodge a notice for publication.

You do not need to register if all you want to do is view the website content or search published notices.

FAQ 3 - If I'm a registered liquidator, how do I register to use the published notices website?

If you are a registered liquidator, ASIC arranges website registration as part of ASIC's liquidator registration process.  Note that registered liquidators can access several notices not otherwise available to other registered users.

FAQ 4 - Can I create additional logins for my registered account?

No.  Each registered user account has only one login and password.

A registered user will need to ensure they establish policies and procedures to protect the security of their login and password if they wish more than one person to have access to their registered user account to create and lodge a notice for publication on the website.

FAQ 5 - Can I update my registered user profile?

Yes.  A registered user can change the details in their user profile, including their password.  Go to the "My notices" tab on the Homepage and select "My Profile".  You can then update and save your profile.

Information from your registered user profile may be used to pre-fill a notice you prepare to lodge for publication.  You can change these pre-filled details on the  notice you are preparing if you wish.

Registered liquidators should note that updating your Firm Name, address and contact details in your published notices website user profile does not constitute compliance with the legislative requirement to lodge notices with ASIC for certain events. Registered liquidators must still lodge notices to comply with those requirements.

FAQ 6 - What happens to my registered user account if I change where I work?

Unless you retain and use the same email address, you will need to create a new registered user account with login and password.

If you are a registered liquidator, email PublishedNotices@asic.gov.au to request your new account status be upgraded to 'registered liquidator status' for your new user account.

If you are a registered liquidator we will include information from your old and new accounts when calculating your variable metric for estimating your IFM liability for a financial year.

FAQ 7 - What happens if I forget my password?

You can reset your password at any time, by selecting 'Log in' and from the Login page, using the 'Forgot your Password?' link. Note the password reset feature expires within 10 minutes. If expired, click on the link and follow the instructions again. If you don't receive an email, please check your junk or spam email folder and add www.asic.gov.au to your firm's whitelist.
