Application and market authorisation for disinfectants and sterilants

To supply disinfectants or sterilants in Australia, you may need to apply for inclusion in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), unless you are exempt.   
  

Surface disinfectants with specific claims (e.g. killing viruses, fungi, spores) must be included in the ARTG before supply. Apply using our Business Services portal with evidence of safety, quality, and efficacy. Fees apply.  
  

We’ll evaluate your product and check it meets regulatory requirements.   
  

If exempt from ARTG entry, your product must still meet standards.   
  

Completing this process ensures legal compliance and authorisation for supply.  
  

You must meet certain obligations to legally supply therapeutic goods in Australia. This section contains guidance and information specific to other therapeutic goods (OTG). You may also have to meet obligations that apply to all OTG and all products.
