The Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Amendment Rules 2026, issued by the Australian Department of Home Affairs, amend the existing 2025 Rules. The amendments cover several key areas, including updates to reporting group requirements, changes to enrolment and registration processes for designated services, and revisions to customer due diligence procedures. Schedule 4 also introduces miscellaneous amendments.

Entities operating under the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 must review these amendments to ensure ongoing compliance. While specific compliance deadlines are not detailed in this summary, regulated entities should consult the full text of the rules to understand the precise changes and any associated implementation timelines. Non-compliance may result in penalties under the Act.
