Central ROND and RONS: Ceasing existing nominators

Audience

Businesses

Corporate service providers (CSP)

Task or topic

Update registers or information

6 April 2026

Record the cessation of nominators with ACRA's Central Register of Nominee Directors (ROND) and Register of Nominee Shareholders (RONS).

Before you cease existing nominators

Ensure the information in your private ROND and RONS is up to date before filing with ACRA. You must update the Central ROND and RONS within two business days of updating your private registers.

Note: You cannot apply for an extension of time for ROND and RONS filings. If you do not file your ROND and RONS with ACRA on time, you may face prosecution and fines up to $25,000.

Who may cease

You can file with the Central ROND and RONS if you are a:

  • Position holder (such as a director or secretary)

  • Registered corporate service provider (CSP)

  • Group secretary of a group of companies

Note: Your registered CSP can set up and maintain your ROND and RONS and file information with ACRA. However, the legal obligation remains with your company. Your company will be liable for any enforcement actions if you breach ROND and RONS requirements.

What you need to prepare

You need to prepare the nominator's date of cessation. This date must be the current date or a past date. Future dates are not permitted.

File the same information from your private ROND and RONS to the Central ROND and RONS.

Keep any supporting documents with your private registers. You do not need to file these with ACRA.
