Search fees

You can access some information for free from our online registers.

However, we are legally obliged under the Corporations Act to charge fees for some products. The list of products below shows the fee applied for each and an example of what each search product looks like.

Where it says '-' in the table below, we do not offer a free or paid version of that product.

All online search products can be purchased through ASIC Connect using a credit card. You can do this by searching for a specific company or business; you'll then see a list of documents or extracts that are available. Once purchased, we will then send them to you by email.

Any certified documents will be sent by mail. The price for any searches requested by mail include a $3 service charge.

We also provide other products, registers and searches for free. See additional searches.
