From 1 July 2026, AUSTRAC will implement new Threshold Transaction Report (TTR) and Suspicious Matter Report (SMR) forms, alongside expanded Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing (AML/CTF) Rules, which will require reporting entities to provide additional details in their submissions. Entities registered with AUSTRAC by 30 March 2026 have a transition period until 30 March 2029 to adopt these new forms, while those enrolling after this date must comply immediately. This shift coincides with Tranche 2 reforms that extend AML/CTF responsibilities to various Designated Non-Financial Businesses and Professions, such as lawyers, accountants, and real estate professionals, requiring them to report specific designated services. Reporting deadlines remain unchanged, with TTRs due within 10 business days and SMRs within 3 business days, or 24 hours for terrorism financing. The guide emphasizes the importance of accurate data through Know Your Customer (KYC), Know Your Business (KYB), and transaction monitoring processes to meet these expanded reporting obligations efficiently.
