Have your say: changing our ID requirements

Australian Carbon Credit Unit (ACCU) Scheme participants and Australian National Registry of Emissions Units (ANREU) account holders need to provide us with their identity documents multiple times to register new projects or open additional accounts.

We are proposing to amend the Carbon Credits (Carbon Farming Initiative) Rule 2015 and the Australian National Registry of Emissions Units Regulations 2011, so that we no longer need to request identity documents again when we have already received them for another activity.

We are also seeking to change the legislation to bring us in line with the requirements of the Australian Government’s Documentation Verification Service (DVS). This would allow us to accept recently expired (not cancelled) identity documents, such as a passport that has expired within the past 2 years.
