Important information and key dates
31 March 2020—renewal applications process opens
The APVMA will send an email advising that applications are open for the renewal of product registrations expiring on 30 June 2020. Renewal applications must be lodged and payment received by 30 May 2020 through the APVMA Online Services portal. Products are not renewed until payment is received by the APVMA.
30 May 2020—renewal applications process closes
Products are required to be renewed by 30 May each year.
The APVMA may only accept a late renewal application in two circumstances:
- Prior to 30 May 2020—a registrant may write to the APVMA to request that the APVMA accept a late renewal application. If the APVMA agrees to the request, the registrant can then make the late renewal application prior to 30 June.
- After 30 May 2020 but before 30 June 2020—a registrant may write to the APVMA to request that the APVMA accept a late renewal application. If the APVMA agrees to the request, the registrant can then make the late renewal application prior to 30 June, but must also pay a late renewal application fee of $50 per product. The late renewal application will not be accepted without payment of the late fee.
30 June 2020—No late renewal applications will be accepted after 30 June
Any products not renewed by the last day of the registration period (30 June) will be de-registered. After this point should you wish to register a product, you will be required to lodge a new application for product registration.
