    Before you start

    Registration steps. Step 1 – Start application. Step 2 – Collateral. Step 3 – Grantors (if applicable). Step 4 – Registration review. Step 5 – Payment (if applicable). Step 6 – Confirmation.


    Maintaining registrations


    As the PPSR is a real-time noticeboard of security interests, available to users 24/7, making sure the information is current and up to date is essential for effective searching.

    Some considerations to keep in mind:

    • Review registrations with no stated end date
    • Extend registrations before they expire
    • Keep your details up to date
    • Build in systems and controls to manage key points of the registrations life cycle.
