Can anyone request a skip trace, or only businesses?

Anyone with a lawful purpose can commission a skip trace- individuals, law firms, businesses, and government agencies all use the service. A legitimate skip tracer will ask for your reason before proceeding, and will decline requests that lack a clear lawful basis, such as locating an ex-partner with no legal proceedings underway.

Will the person I am looking for know they have been traced?

Not as a result of the investigation itself. Licensed investigators conduct enquiries discreetly and do not alert the subject. If the purpose of the trace is to serve legal documents, the subject will of course be aware once those documents are delivered but the investigation that led to their address remains confidential.

How accurate are skip trace results? What if the address is wrong?

AusCovert only issues a verified result when multiple independent sources confirm the same address. Our 96% accuracy rate reflects this standard. If a provided address turns out to be incorrect within a reasonable period, we will re-investigate the matter. Ask about our verification guarantee when you enquire.

Can you skip trace someone who has left Australia?

Yes. AusCovert has access to international skip tracing resources and investigative partners in key jurisdictions including New Zealand, the United Kingdom, the United States, and parts of Asia. International traces typically take longer and are quoted separately. Contact us with your specific country requirement.

What information do I need to provide to start a skip trace?

At minimum: the subject's full name and last known address or date of birth. Additional details: vehicle make/model, last employer, associated businesses, or any known aliases- improve speed and accuracy. We will ask you for a brief at intake, and everything you share is kept strictly confidential.
