Expedite your registration process with the ACNC

The service allows organisations to use one application and list one contact person for all entities, rather than registering each one separately and listing multiple contact persons.

“The bulk registration service streamlines the process avoiding repetition and delays, and ultimately reducing red tape for charities of this kind,” says the Australian Charities and Not-for-profit Commission (ACNC) Commissioner, Susan Pascoe AM.

With 642 patriotic funds in Victoria, The Returned Servicemen’s League (RSL) of Victoria recently registered numerous Patriotic Funds using the ACNC’s bulk service.

The State President of RSL Victoria, Major General David McLachlan AO speaks about his experience.

“It saved us and our sub-branches a lot of effort and time, being able to provide a consolidated report on their behalf.”

“It probably saved weeks in a collective sense,” says McLachlan.

Registering with the ACNC is not compulsory, but it does give organisations access to tax concessions.
