New Tranche 2 AML / CTF compliance legislation comes into effect in 2026 to prevent, detect and disrupt money laundering and terrorism financing. This means changes to the way your agency completes property purchases.
From July 1, 2026, every real estate agent will need to use an AML / CTF compliance program to identify, assess, and mitigate money laundering and terrorism financing risks. You’ll also need to report high-risk activities to Australia’s financial intelligence unit and regulator, AUSTRAC.
