NDIS provider compliance at a glance: September 2026

The numbers

The NDIS Commission publishes two lists that matter when you choose or review a provider: the provider register (who is registered, and their status) and compliance actions (banning orders, revocations, suspensions, compliance notices and more). The Australian Business Register adds a third fact: whether the provider's ABN is still active.

• 27,285 providers are currently registered. Another 2,147 registrations on the register are listed as revoked.
• 1,856 registered providers (1 in 15) have at least one published compliance action, including actions no longer in force.
• 581 registered providers (1 in 47) have an ABN shown as cancelled on the Australian Business Register. For 104 of them, the ABN was cancelled more than a year ago.

New since August

Between 1 August and 26 September 2026, 66 revocations of registration, 35 banning orders and 2 compliance notices took effect, as published by the Commission. Another 10 revocations are listed with a start date still to come, up to mid-November. Over the same weeks, the Commission marked more than 800 older compliance notices as no longer in force.

That is why a check you did in July may already be out of date: a provider can lose its registration, and a person can be banned, in any week.

Where providers are registered

New South Wales has the most registered providers (9,204), then Victoria (8,022), Queensland (4,684), Western Australia (2,251) and South Australia (1,976). The ACT (415), the Northern Territory (380) and Tasmania (351) have the fewest. States are taken from each provider's head office address, so a provider can work in more states than this shows.

The compliance actions on record

The NDIS Commission lists 4,350 compliance actions. Most are compliance notices (2,619). There are also 832 banning orders, 714 revocations of registration, 139 refusals to re-register, 41 suspensions and 5 enforceable undertakings. Some are against people rather than businesses, and some are no longer in force.

What this means if you coordinate or manage plans

• A cancelled ABN is a fact to check, not a verdict. A business may have restructured and moved to a new ABN while its NDIS registration still shows the old one. It is worth asking the provider.
• A compliance action from years ago may be finished. Read the dates: when it started and whether it is still in force.
• These facts change every week. Checking once when you onboard a provider doesn't tell you what changed since.
