    IPA is pleased to announce a significant upgrade in its online registry. Thank you for your patience while IPA is implementing this exciting new reform.  Set out below are details of the launch of the new registry.

    New entities.  The new system is fully functional for the creation of new business entities.  You can submit an application to form a company, register a business name or file a notice of intent to form an association online today.  You may also still submit paper filings to create these new entities.

    Existing entities.  The data migration from the old legacy system is still in process.  If you search for an existing entity, you will see only a skeleton record in the database.  New data will be added to each entity in the coming days to fully build out its history.  IPA strongly recommends that you wait to submit any filings against an existing entity until the data migration is complete.  During this time IPA will waive any late filing fees that might otherwise apply.

    Account information.  If you have an existing online account, that information has been migrated into the new system.   

    Online filing. The new system allows for every single filing to be submitted online. For this reason, paper filings will no longer be accepted except for the initial application to incorporate a company, register a business name, or file a notice of intent for association. 

    Online payments. Online filing fees are paid from your client account. See information below about how to establish a free client account. You may fund the account in various ways, including using a new feature, BSP Online. You may also use credit card or via cash or cheque at BSP.

    Extracts. The legacy system is available to internal registry users only. You can contact the registry team at ipaonline@ipa.gov.pg if you require an extract on the information that was registered prior to 1 December 2022.

    Transitional Updates. Business Names, Associations and Business Groups must update their records to transit into using the new online registry services.

    Re-registration,  New legislation just passed in 2022 requires all companies and overseas companies to re-register in this new online system. Re-registration is free and takes the place of the annual return due in the year you re-register. When you re-register you will be able to update all your company details for free, but failure to re-register will result in your company being struck off the register. Because you have a full year to re-register, IPA requests that you wait until data migration is complete to undertake the re-registration.  This will be much easier for you as you will not have to re-type all of your details if you wait for the migration to finish.  For more information see the Help section below about re-registration.
