You will need your myID credential to register for access to the PBS Approved Suppliers Portal.
Your myID is the Australian Government’s digital identity provider that allows you to prove who you are online. Relationship Authorisation Manager (RAM) is an authorisation service that allows you to act on behalf of a business online when linked with your myID.
