When you took the loan out, Ubank registered a mortgage over your property. That registration stays until you tell them to remove it. The discharge authority is how you tell them.
You need one in three situations: you’re selling, you’re moving the loan to another lender, or you’ve paid the loan off and want the mortgage lifted. It’s the same form each time — you just tick a different reason.
There is no public Ubank discharge form. You ring, they try to keep you, then they send it. Their own wording is ‘we’d hate to see you leave’ — so allow for that call.
Most pages treat these as one process. They aren’t, and the difference decides who does the chasing.
If you’re selling
The loan gets paid out of the sale proceeds on settlement day. Your conveyancer runs it. Lodge the form once the contract is unconditional, and hand your conveyancer the date you sent it.
If you’re refinancing
Two lenders have to settle on the same day. Your new lender drives it, but nothing can be booked until Ubank has processed this form. Lodge it as soon as your new loan is formally approved, not after.
Ubank doesn’t publish a standard discharge fee, and nor do most other lenders. It’s set in your loan contract, so check your letter of offer or the fees and charges booklet from settlement. It comes out of the payout figure rather than arriving as a separate bill.
Two other costs catch people out. The state land titles office charges a registration fee, which your conveyancer passes on. And if you’re still inside a fixed term, break costs are separate from the discharge fee and can run into thousands. Ask for both figures before you commit to a settlement date.
How long does a ubank discharge take?
Ubank doesn't publish a processing time. The other big lenders ask for at least 10 business days, so plan on that as a floor and allow three weeks end to end. Call 13 30 80 if you have a settlement date locked in.
Does Ubank charge a discharge fee?
Usually yes, but Ubank doesn't publish a standard amount. It's set in your loan contract, so check your letter of offer or the fees and charges booklet you were given at settlement. Expect it to be deducted from the payout figure rather than billed separately. If you took the loan out with a fixed rate that hasn't ended, break costs are separate and can be much larger.

Checked against Ubank’s own discharge page on 18 August 2026. Lenders change forms, addresses and timeframes without much warning — if something here doesn’t match what they’ve told you, theirs is right and we’d like to know.
Before you discharge, check the new rate is worth it
Discharge fees, break costs and registration fees all come off the saving. Fifteen minutes is usually enough to know whether the move still makes sense.
