Reporting and Legal Requirements:

We take precautions to avoid being party to money laundering and financing of terrorist and other proscribed organisations and go by the KYC principle (Know your Customer). Therefore, we reserve the right to demand proof of identity, purpose of remittance and source of funds as legally required. We are also required to report any transactions we believe to be of a suspicious nature. Which is why we prefer you to transfer your remittance direct from your bank account to one of our accounts without any cash transactions.

As per Sec. 17 of the Financial Transaction Reports Act 1988 all remittances are reported to the relevant authorities. For funds above $ 10,000 paid in cash the remitter must provide a valid identity document and sign the relevant reporting form. Any suspicious transfer will be promptly reported to the Australian Authorities.

For details please contact AUSTRAC on 02 9950 0827.
