About the Register

The Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC) maintains a public database of the organisations we have registered as charities (the ACNC Register). To be registered as a charity and appear on the Register, organisations must meet our requirements under the ACNC Act.

Find out more about the information shown on the ACNC Register.

Searching for an organisation by Australian Business Number (ABN) will give you the best result. When entering an ABN into the search box, make sure there are no spaces between the numbers. The tip box to the right includes some tips for searching that you may find helpful.

We are currently working to improve the search functionality of the Register.

Please note that clicking on an ABN in these search results will direct you to the relevant entry on the Australian Business Register.

Please note that the ACNC has temporarily withheld information relating to private ancillary funds from the ACNC Register. This is necessary for technical reasons to implement the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission Amendment Regulation 2013 (No. 2), which commenced on 17 May 2013.
