ACNC launches charity registration tool

The ACNC has launched an online, interactive tool designed to assist organisations to assess their eligibility to be registered as a charity, and to assist those already registered to check their ongoing entitlement.

The Charity Registration Check tool asks specific questions about an organisation’s circumstances and provides tailored responses. Based on these responses, the tool outlines the next steps that need to be taken, helping users understand the charity registration criteria and the information they need to provide to make a successful registration application, or to maintain eligibility to be registered.

This innovative tool is particularly beneficial for:
new applicants who are unsure if their organisation qualifies for charity registration
registered charities needing to assess if they continue to meet ongoing registration requirements.

New applicants can use it to identify potential issues before submitting a formal registration application to the ACNC, while registered charities can use it to check they are continuing to meet all requirements to maintain their registration, such as keeping Responsible People’s names up to date if there has been a new board appointment, for example.

Additionally, when the ACNC conduct annual reviews of Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) eligibility, registered charities may be asked to use the tool to self-assess ongoing entitlement.
