Renewing your auctioneer registration
All auctioneer registrations must be renewed annually. Make sure you renew your registration and pay the renewal fee before your registration expires.
Note
Do you need to provide a new criminal record?
If you (or a person concerned in the management of your company) supplied us with your criminal record five or more years' ago, you must send us a new criminal record report during renewal this year.
This can take up to 20 working days, so make sure to request it from the Ministry of Justice well before your expiry date!
How to renew
To maintain your registration as an auctioneer, please follow the steps below:
Step 1 — Receive your renewal form
We will send you a pre-filled confirmation of registration form, including the details we currently hold for you on the public register, at least one month before your registration expires.
Note
If you supplied us with your Ministry of Justice criminal record report less than five years ago, you don't need to include a new report with your renewal, but we do reserve the right to request this at any stage.
Step 2 — Submit your application
Review your registration details and email the completed form to us. If any information is outdated, please include a completed company notification of change form or individual notification of change form with your submission.

Step 3 — Pay the renewal fee
Once we receive your application, we’ll send you an invoice. The renewal fee is $185 (including GST).
Please wait for the invoice before making payment.
What happens next
After we receive your payment, we’ll process your renewal application. This may take up to 10 working days.
If You Don’t Renew
Auctioneer registrations must be renewed every 12 months. If you do not renew before your registration expires (you can check your expiry date on the public register), your name will be removed from the auctioneers register. To continue operating as an auctioneer after your registration has lapsed, you will need to submit a new application.
