Jewellers and precious metals: Tranche 2 in one page

People search “AML for jewellers Australia” when a gold dealer wants one page on Tranche 2 before opening the sector kit. Checked against AUSTRAC’s program starter kits on 4 October 2026. This is general information, not legal advice. This page does not reproduce that guidance. The longer dealer page is AML for jewellers. Precious-metals obligations already written up are Tranche 2 for precious metals. The sector map is /tranche-2.

One sector, one program

A jeweller searching AML for jewellers in Australia needs a boundary, not a secondhand law-firm policy. The shop’s customers, the way stock is sold, and the designated services in this sector are the program’s subject. Tranche 2 did not hand dealers a real estate starter kit. It left a sector kit that the business still has to customise and approve.

This page is that orientation in one sitting. It is not the kit, and it is not the existing long pages on jewellers and precious metals. Those pages stay the detailed ones so this article does not cannibalise them. Cash reporting and linked sales are not restated here; if your question is the threshold report, use the threshold page; if your question is which kit, use the kits summary.

• Start with the sector kit. Customise it for this shop. Do not approve a law-firm template with the names swapped.
• Enrol on the official form. A blog does not enrol you. AUSTRAC Online does, once you know a designated service is in play.
• Name a compliance officer. A small shop still writes the role down. The owner can hold it only if they can pause a sale the program says to pause.
• Check the customer the program names. A person is KYC. A company buying for stock is KYB. The suite does not decide which.

Orientation, not the other guides

Where this page stops

This page is the one-page orientation. It is not the precious-metals write-up and it is not the kit. Continue on Tranche 2 for precious metals and the starter kits summary.

What the client pays

On FreeAML the firm suite is A$0. The firm emails the client a link. Verification is client-pays. On the public list a personal KYC check is A$20 and a company or trust KYB check is A$40. Use KYB when the customer is a company or a trust. A sector orientation is not a customer check, and the firm suite does not include the starter kit. Confirm the live amounts on FreeAML pricing. FreeAML does not decide which of your sales are designated services or enrol the shop.
