Renew your ReOC

An initial ReOC is valid for 12 months and renewals are valid for up to 3 years.

The nominated Chief Executive Officer (CEO) may renew the ReOC online up to 3 months before it’s expiry date if there are no changes.

You cannot renew an expired certificate. To continue operating, you must:

  • apply for a new certificate
  • pay the related fees for the application
  • complete the application assessment.
