NEW FOR ACCOUNTING FIRMS
AML Client Communication Pack
Ready to Send. Done For You.
What Accountants Must Know Before 1 July
Your clients need to hear from you before 1 July 2026. But you don't have a spare afternoon to write the emails, checklists, and explainers from scratch. So we've done it for you.
Special Offer: $209 (normally $299) Ends 22 June 9 AM AEST
AML/CTF Tranche 2 takes effect 1 July 2026 — Your clients need to know what's changing. Are you ready?
The Reality
You Know AML Is Coming. Your Clients Don't.
From 1 July 2026, every accounting practice in Australia that provides designated services — setting up companies, trusts, assisting with property transactions — will be required to verify client identities and complete due diligence checks before they can start work.
Your clients don't know this yet. And when they find out, they'll have questions. Lots of them.
You need to tell them what's changing, what documents they'll need, and why you're suddenly asking for their passport before you can set up a trust.
Every email, every article, every checklist in this pack has been built against AUSTRAC's published guidance — including the Accounting Program Starter Kit, the Initial CDD guides, and the Summary of Obligations.
You don't need to write it all from scratch. The AML Client Communication Pack gives you everything — ready to brand, ready to send, ready to use today.
What's Included
Everything You Need to Communicate AML Changes to Clients
Each piece is written in plain language for your clients and designed so you can brand it as your own and send it straight away.
1. New Client Onboarding Kit - Email, Form & Checklist
A warm, professional email template explaining the AML changes — what's happening, what documents they'll need, and what to expect. Written in plain English, ready to send.
Covers individuals, companies, trusts, SMSFs & partnerships
Personalise with your firm name and send immediately
Warm, reassuring tone that builds client trust
2. Client Communication Emails
Ready-to-send emails for your existing clients — letting them know about the upcoming AML changes, what it means for them, and what you'll need from them. Professional, reassuring, and easy to personalise.
Existing client-focused — explain changes without alarming them
Covers what's changing and what documents to prepare
Includes "by law, we can't start until checks are complete" messaging
3. Client Document Checklist
A tick-box checklist your clients can use to gather everything you'll need — organised by entity type. Attach it to the onboarding email or hand it out at meetings.
Sections for individuals, companies, trusts, SMSFs & partnerships
Photo ID, ASIC extracts, trust deeds, PEP declarations & more
Notes/status column for tracking progress
4. AML Compliance Checklist
A comprehensive internal reference for your team — covering what's changing, which services trigger checks, what clients will experience, privacy obligations, and communication tips.
7 sections with tick-box tables
Internal use — not client-facing
Based on AUSTRAC's published guidance
5. Sample AML/CTF Compliance Manual
The document AUSTRAC expects every reporting entity to have — with the hard part already done. A 14-section customisable template covering risk assessment, CDD procedures, reporting obligations, record keeping, staff training, and governance.
14 sections plus 4 appendices — comprehensive and ready to customise
Covers risk assessment, CDD, EDD, reporting, record keeping & staff training
Based on AUSTRAC's Accounting Program Starter Kit and AML/CTF Act 2024
6. Summary Article
A high-level plain-English article explaining the AML changes from the client's perspective. Perfect for newsletters, your website, or as a standalone client update.
Written from the accountant's voice — brand as your own
Newsletter-ready, website-ready, email-ready
Ends with a call to action back to your firm
7. Eight Detailed Breakdown Articles
Each article covers a specific area of the AML changes in depth — designated services, identity verification, client documents, privacy & reporting, business structures, registered office clients, and lost trust deeds.
500+ words each — substantial, not fluffy
Written for clients, not accountants
Perfect for drip campaigns, blogs or newsletters
8. Nine Professionally Designed Infographics
One infographic for each article — visually explaining the key changes so clients can understand at a glance. Share on social media, embed in newsletters, or display in your office.
One per article — 9 total
Designed for digital and print use
Simplifies complex changes into visual summaries

Built for Time-Poor Accounting Practices
You know AML is coming but haven't had time to draft client-facing communications
You provide designated services — company setups, trusts, property, or entity restructures
You want to get ahead of client questions before 1 July — not scramble after
You need technically accurate content based on AUSTRAC guidance — not generic templates
You'd rather spend an hour with clients than an afternoon writing compliance emails
You want something you can brand as your own and use across your entire client base
