Law Society of WA AML/CTF hub

A Law Society of WA AML hub is not this page. A public address that does not resolve is not your program; AUSTRAC’s designated services are.

Quick answer

A Perth firm should not wait on a society page that did not load. Check the Law Society of Western Australia’s own site for whatever it currently publishes. Use AUSTRAC for the designated services and the starter kit. The New South Wales society page on this site is a different state; this article does not invent WA guidance.

People search “Law Society WA AML” when a Perth firm searches for a Law Society of WA AML hub and the public page does not resolve. Checked against AUSTRAC’s professional designated services page on 4 October 2026. This is general information, not legal advice. This page does not reproduce that guidance. A different state society write-up is the Law Society of NSW AML note. The firm-facing checks page is AML checks for lawyers. The sector map is /tranche-2.

A missing page is not a program

Law Society WA AML is a fair search for a local hub. The practical problem is that a listed public address can fail to resolve. This page will not pretend to have fetched a guide it could not read, and it will not reconstruct one. A Western Australian firm still has AUSTRAC; professional designated services, the legal starter kit, and enrolment sit with the regulator, not with a broken link.

State society material can be useful when it loads on the society’s own site. Check there. Do not use the New South Wales note on this website as if it were Western Australian guidance. Do not use a Victorian institute page either; this article is the gap note: the hub is not here, and the program is still yours to adopt from AUSTRAC’s materials.

  • Check the society’s own site. If a hub exists, it is theirs. This page does not mirror it.
  • Do not cite a dead link. A page that does not resolve is not authority. Do not paste a summary of text you have not read.
  • Use AUSTRAC for the services. Designated services and the starter kit do not depend on a society CMS.
  • Keep other states in their states. An NSW note is NSW. It is not a substitute WA hub.

Where this page stops

This page is the missing-hub note. It is not the lawyer’s compliance guide. That guide is Tranche 2 for lawyers.

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 society hub is not included, and this suite does not publish law-society guidance. Confirm the live amounts on FreeAML pricing. FreeAML does not host Law Society of WA materials or confirm a page that did not resolve.

Frequently Asked Questions

Start from AUSTRAC if the society page is down.

The firm suite is A$0. The client pays a check the program requires. A society hub is not the check.
