What is the PPSR?
The Personal Property Securities Register (PPSR) is a national online register managed by the Australian Financial Security Authority (AFSA).
It records security interests in personal property, such as goods, vehicles, or equipment, to help protect businesses when selling goods on credit or leasing and hiring them.
Registering your interest on the PPSR ensures you have a legal claim to the goods if your debtor becomes insolvent or fails to pay.
Why registration matters
If you sell, lease, or hire goods, registering on the PPSR can:
Protect your rights as a secured creditor
Help you recover goods or their value if a debtor defaults
Reduce financial loss from insolvency events
Strengthen your position in debt recovery
