Treat any message that asks for payment or personal login details in connection with a new portal with suspicion. Submit applications yourself through WSHC&#8217;s official channels rather than handing them to a third party, because WSHC has warned about the risk of fraud and forgery.<\/p>\n<h2>bizSAFE Portal Downtime FAQs<\/h2>\n<h3>When is the bizSAFE portal downtime?<\/h3>\n<p>From 6.00pm on 27 October 2026 until 9.00am on 2 November 2026, according to WSHC&#8217;s notice.<\/p>\n<h3>Which bizSAFE services will be unavailable?<\/h3>\n<p>WSHC says some online services will be temporarily unavailable but does not list them in the notice. Check WSHC&#8217;s page for updates.<\/p>\n<h3>Does the bizSAFE portal downtime change my certificate&#8217;s validity?<\/h3>\n<p>The notice does not say that validity dates change. Check your expiry date, and contact WSHC if it falls in or near the downtime window.<\/p>\n<h3>Should I renew before the downtime?<\/h3>\n<p>If your renewal is due soon, submitting before the downtime is the safest option. WSHC asks for renewals two months before expiry for Level 3 and above.<\/p>\n<h2>After the bizSAFE Portal Downtime Ends<\/h2>\n<p>Once services resume, confirm that your company&#8217;s details and certificate status are correct on the new portal.
