If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)

x	(a)	The reason described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;

PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Permex Petroleum Corporation (the “Company”) is unable, without unreasonable effort or expense, to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”) within the prescribed time period because the Company will need additional time to finalize the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2023 to be filed with the 2023 Form 10-K, mostly due to the Company’s limited financial resources. The Company does not expect to file the 2023 Form 10-K within the 15-day extension period (the “Extension Period”) afforded by Rule 12b-25 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company plans to file the 2023 Form 10-K as soon as practicable following the completion of the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2023, and the receipt by the Company of the report on such financial statements from the Company’s auditor.

This Form 12b-25 contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable United States securities laws. These forward looking statements include: (i) statements regarding the Company’s expectation to not file the 2023 Form 10-K within the Extension Period, and (ii) statements regarding the Company’s financial results for the year ended September 30, 2023. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations or beliefs about the Company’s future plans, expectations and objectives. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements. These risks include, but are not limited to, adjustments resulting from the completion by the Company’s auditor of their review of the 2023 Form 10-K. Readers of this Form 12b-25 are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained herein, which speak only as of the date of this Form 12b-25.
