Reinstatement of an entry on the ARTG

A sponsor may request an entry be reinstated on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) if the entry was cancelled due to:

• a request received from the sponsor, or
• a decision made by the Secretary (or their delegate) to cancel the entry due to non-payment of annual charges.

The Secretary may, by notice in writing to the person, reinstate a cancelled entry, if the sponsor:

• requests reinstatement within 90 days of the cancellation
• has paid the outstanding annual charges relating to the entry, and
• has paid the prescribed application fee.

Should you wish to reinstate your entry, please complete the reinstatement form and send it to accountsrec@health.gov.au.

The cost associated with a reinstatement can be found under "General Fees" in the Schedule of fees and charges.

For advice on how to make a payment to the TGA please refer to our payment options web page.
