ASIC has launched a new website for the publication and searching of notices relating to companies that are either:
- subject to a winding up application filed with an Australian court;
- in external administration (liquidation, voluntary administration etc);
- considering entering into a scheme of arrangement; or
- to be deregistered.
If you only want to search, there is no registration or fee requirement. Note that the website only holds notices published from 1 July 2012.
From 1 July 2012, most insolvency and other notices won’t require print media advertisement. Instead, they must be lodged with ASIC for publication on ASIC’s new website for insolvency and other notices. ASIC Fact Sheet.
