Deed Stamping: Protect Your Clients, Protect Your Business

Acis Legal, current as of: 18 September 2025.

While it may seem like just another administrative task, getting your deed properly stamped shortly after establishment is essential to ensure the trust is legally enforceable, and to avoid penalties or delays down the track.

At Acis, we make deed stamping simple. Once the Trust Deed has been properly executed and dated, our team can handle the entire process on your behalf, so you can focus on advising your clients rather than navigating state revenue office requirements. And now, we’re pleased to share an important update about our stamping services.

New: We Can Now Stamp LRBA Bare/Custodian Trust Deeds for Victorian Property
