ASIC Banned Persons Search API

POST
/asic_banned_persons
LIVE

Searches the ASIC register of banned persons specifically. Covers AFS banned/disqualified, banned futures representatives, banned securities representatives, credit banned/disqualified, and disqualified directors. Same search-mode and similarity-threshold logic as the broader Banned and Disqualified Person Search, but scoped to ASIC-sourced data only.

Director appointment with a clean ASIC paper trail

When a director is appointed and you want an ASIC-only check on file (rather than a multi-source one), this is the endpoint to call. Useful when audit needs to see ASIC alone was screened.

gavel Compliance

What's the difference between this and the broader Banned and Disqualified Person Search?

add

This one is ASIC only. The broader endpoint also covers the ATO Disqualified SMSF Trustees register. Use this one when your control specifically calls for ASIC sources, or when ASIC alone satisfies the requirement.

rocket_launch Implementation

Can I filter by ban type?

add

Yes. banned_types takes one or more values. Leave it empty to search all five ASIC ban categories at once.
