Background 

• As detailed in EAN 2026-11 dated 5 June 2026, the department is transitioning Micor to a new platform on 16 July 2026.
• The Micor website address will remain unchanged: https://micor.agriculture.gov.au.
• The new Micor platform will retain all existing content relied upon by users. The overall look and feel, navigation and structure will remain similar.
• Existing Micor newsletter subscriptions will continue, and users will not need to re-subscribe.
• Any bookmarks to commodity landing pages will be redirected to the new platform.
• Users who access publicly available content without a username and password can continue to do so as usual and do not need to create an account or set up two-factor authentication (TFA).

What is changing?

• Most users will notice only minor interface changes when using the new platform.
• Introduction of TFA for users who access password-protected content.
• Bookmarks to individual country or case pages will need to be re-created.

Action required by all Micor users after go-live

• Users who have saved bookmarks to specific country or case pages will need to recreate them after go-live, as a specific country or case page website addresses will change in the new platform.

Action required by users who access password-protected content

Following go-live, users who currently access password-protected content will need to:

1. reset their password
2. set up TFA
3. use TFA when accessing password-protected content on the new platform
