Decide if you should register on the PPSR

If you're thinking about creating a registration on the PPSR, learn more about what can be registered on the PPSR and how this might benefit you.

It's important that you understand what the PPSR is and whether you have an interest that can or should be registered. Find out more about what a security interest is, who can register them and what personal property means. 

Important note: Do not enter any personal identifiers, such as tax file numbers (TFNs), individual healthcare identifier (IHI), Medicare numbers, birth certificate or passport details. The PPSR is a public register and placing these identifiers in registrations may expose you to the risk of identity theft or even legal action. Registrations containing these identifiers will be restricted and/or removed.

Registering on the PPSR is a way to let people know if personal property such as a cars, goods or company assets have security interests over them.

You can register security interests that arise from retention of title arrangements on the PPSR to give you the best chance of getting your goods back if your customer doesn't pay. 

Some types of lease, bailment and consignment arrangements create security interests that can be registered on the PPSR.
