The ACNC Charity Portal is a way to manage your charity obligations with us online. You can sign in to apply to register a not-for-profit as a charity, update your charity’s information, notify us of certain changes, and submit your Annual Information Statements. These Terms of Use describe what you need to know and understand about your rights and responsibilities as a user of the Portal.
This template is intended to be used as a starting point for charities in developing their own internal dispute resolution and disciplinary procedures.
Internal disputes within a charity are disagreements between individuals or groups about the charity's activities, decisions or policies. The ACNC does not directly intervene or mediate to resolve internal disputes.
ACNC guidance and tools such as topics, factsheets, guides, webinars, charity chat podcasts, reports, templates, interpretation statements, etc. are found on this page.
The Charity Forum membership comprises invited representatives of the charity sector and professional advisers to the charity sector, primarily from the legal and accounting professions. The forum brings this membership together with ACNC representatives and invited observer members.

Registered charities are required to keep financial and operational records. This page provides examples of the types of records a charity may need to keep.
All charities have a requirement to keep appropriate records. Your charity’s record-keeping obligations depend on its size, complexity, activities, how it spends or receives money, and whether it has extra obligations from state regulators.
This guide has been developed to help explain what conflicts of interest are and how they can be managed.
This record-keeping checklist promotes good record-keeping practice and supports charities in meeting their ACNC obligations. It is intended as a guide and is not meant to be an exhaustive list.
