Cancelling a retirement village's registration

Filing a request to cancel your registration

​A retirement village operator can only file a request to cancel their registration on the Retirement Villages Register if certain terms and conditions have been met.

Filing your request for cancellation

The operator of a retirement village may make a request to us to cancel their registration on the Retirement Villages Register on Form RV4 (Request for cancellation of registration).

Where there's more than 1 operator of a retirement village, the request must be made by all operators.

The operator/s of a retirement village can't request the cancellation of their registration on the Retirement Villages Register unless:

  • all residents of the retirement village have received independent legal advice about the effects of cancellation, and
  • at least 90 per cent of those residents have consented in writing to the cancellation.
