On 1 July 2026, AUSTRAC will implement new threshold transaction report (TTR) and suspicious matter report (SMR) forms in AUSTRAC Online, coinciding with the commencement of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) obligations for newly regulated "tranche 2" businesses. These businesses, which include real estate professionals, lawyers, and accountants, must adapt to the new reporting forms immediately, while existing entities have a transition period until 30 March 2029. The changes aim to enhance data quality and streamline reporting, with AUSTRAC expecting an increase in report volumes as more businesses come under regulation. Although there are no alterations to cross-border movement or international funds transfer instruction reporting, the focus is on improving transaction monitoring systems that identify suspicious activities in real time. The text highlights Didit's Transaction Monitoring service, which provides real-time rule evaluation, case management, and support for both fiat and crypto transactions, enabling businesses to meet compliance requirements efficiently.
