Professional Registry:

Welcome to the Australian Registry of Wills, Deeds and DocumentsTM.

The registry aims to assist you and your clients to easily identify the existence, currency and location of Wills, deeds and other valuable documents.

By registering your business, you'll receive all the associated professional member benefits, enabling you to register documents on your clients' behalf.

You'll have an individual professional account, which allows you to easily manage and maintain all your client information from one central location.

Each client you register will receive their account username and password by email. This will enable them to keep their details up-to-date and control who they nominate to have access to their registered information.

What's more, every document you register is assigned with a unique registration number and certificate for easy identification.

* The Australian Registry of Wills, Deeds and Documents does NOT store any original Wills, Deeds or Documents. It is a member's sole responsibility to ensure the safety and security of where any original Documents are kept.
