The registration renewal date for optometrists with general or non-practising registration is 30 November. You can check your registration details and expiry date on the national registers of practitioners.
Make sure your contact details provided to Ahpra, including email, are current as you will be sent reminders when your registration is due. Look for these reminders from Ahpra as confirmation that online renewal is open. After receiving your reminder, go to the Ahpra login page.
See fees for the cost of annual renewal, including the late payment fee for renewal applications received during December.
If you do not renew your registration by 31 December (end of the one month late period), your registration will lapse in accordance with the National Law and your name will be removed from the national register.
If you wish to keep practising and do not renew registration by 31 December, you must submit a fast track application for registration. Fast track application forms are available on the Board website or by phoning the Customer Service Team on 1300 419 495 during January.
If submitting a fast track application, you cannot practise until your application is processed and your registration details are updated on the national register.
