Registration need
Plain-English guidance on mandatory and optional registration considerations for your intended services.
For aspiring providers
Start with the business model—not the application form.
Registration may be mandatory for some supports and commercially useful for others. Start by testing the scope, operating model and readiness of the organisation you intend to build.
The decision first
A Provider Viability & Scope Review helps you decide whether registration is required or commercially sensible, which supports fit your capabilities, and what foundations must exist before application work begins.
