Time running out to renew registration by 30 November

20 Nov 2015

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health practitioners are reminded to renew their registration before it expires on 30 November.

Practitioners should act on the series of email and hard copy reminders being sent to them by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA), on behalf of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Practice Board of Australia. 

Anyone who hasn’t received a reminder to renew should phone AHPRA on 1300 419 495.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health practitioners whose application for renewal of general registration is received on time, or during the following one month late period, can continue practising while their application is processed.

Anyone who does not apply to renew their registration by 31 December 2015 will have lapsed registration. They will be removed from the national register of practitioners and will not be able to practise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health practice in Australia.
