ASIC continues to make it easier for customers to meet their obligations, with around 70% of ASIC’s paper‑based lodgements now enabled for submission by email following the latest release.

Our website has a complete list of forms that can be lodged by email.

Building on earlier updates, 30 additional forms are now available for email lodgement from 31 March, further reducing reliance on postal submission by approximately 13,000 paper lodgements each year.

This follows the forms enabled in 2025. Collectively, this brings the total to 88 forms now available for email lodgement, covering a broad range of interactions including:

• company notifications
• foreign company updates
• auditor appointments and consents
• credit licence updates
• debenture holder notifications, and
• other regulatory lodgements.

Email lodgement provides a simpler and more convenient way to submit these forms, while postal lodgement remains available where preferred.

What this means for customers

Customers can choose to lodge eligible forms by email, offering faster turnaround times supported by reduced manual handling.

Notably, certain forms related to foreign companies can now be lodged by email for the first time.

This release marks another practical step in ASIC’s simplification agenda, reducing administrative burden while helping to modernise how interactions with ASIC are managed.
