ob体育 is piloting a new digital portal for licensing, which includes the ability to apply for, maintain, and vary AFS licences.

The new AFS licence portal simplifies and streamlines the digital application experience. It provides a user-friendly and streamlined experience by pre-filling information already known to ob体育, and only presenting questions relevant to each applicant鈥檚 application.

What鈥檚 changing and when

A pilot involving a limited number of new AFSL applications commenced on 12 August 2024.

During the pilot phase, all other AFS licence applicants will continue using the existing eBusiness licensee portal to apply for, maintain, and vary their licence.

ob体育 is using the pilot as an opportunity to take on board any feedback to make continuous improvements to the AFSL application process and transaction flows before we go live for all AFS licence applications, scheduled for the first quarter of 2025.
