The Australian Institute of Conveyancers and AML/CTF

The Australian Institute of Conveyancers and its state divisions have published guidance and training for members on the Tranche 2 obligations. Membership does not exempt a practice; it helps it comply.

What AIC offers

Guidance on enrolment, programs, client due diligence and reporting written for conveyancers, plus CPD sessions. Check your division's website for current material.

Licensing

State conveyancer licensing continues as before. AUSTRAC enrolment is separate and required. Non-compliance can be a conduct matter with both.

Use the guidance, keep your own records

Institute templates are a starting point. Your program must describe your practice, and your client records must be yours, dated and retrievable for 7 years.

Questions people ask

Does AIC training count as AML staff training?
It can, if it covers your program's content. Record who attended and when.
