When can I use the PPSR?
The Personal Property Securities Register (PPSR) is highly available. It can generally be accessed online seven days a week, 24 hours a day.
At a regular time every week the PPSR is unavailable due to maintenance. There may also be times that the PPSR is not available due to technical issues or other factors.
Scheduled outages
PPSR outage – Daylight saving – Sunday 6 April
The PPSR will be unavailable on Sunday 6 April 2025 from 1:30 am AEDT to 3:05 am AEST. The total outage time will be 2 hours 35 minutes.
This change allows for the change from Daylight Saving Time to Standard Time. This ensures the time-sensitive nature of the PPSR remains preserved during the transition.
We apologise for any inconvenience.
Routine maintenance
The PPSR undergoes scheduled maintenance every Wednesday evening.
Start: 9:00pm (Canberra time)
End: 11:59pm (Canberra time)
The PPSR is unavailable during this time. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) availability
ASIC performs daily system maintenance between 4:00am and 4:30am (Canberra time).
During ASIC maintenance:
- ASIC verification may be intermittently unavailable or slow
- PPSR searches using ASIC identifiers may not return associated names
- PPSR registrations using ASIC identifiers may not include associated names on verification statements.
The absence of the name associated with the ASIC identifier from a PPSR search certificate or verification statement does not affect document validity. No refunds will be issued in these cases.
This information is correct at the time of publication, but may be subject to change. The Registrar will advise of any changes to scheduled maintenance on the PPSR website.
Unscheduled unavailability
If the PPSR is unavailable due to an unscheduled outage the Registrar will advise through a message on the PPSR website homepage.
