Contract building work over $3,300, or any plumbing, drainage, gasfitting or fire work at any value, and you need the correct QBCC trade contractor licence. We get you the right class, first time, QBCC fees included.
QBCC regulates more than 80 licence types. If you contract building work valued over $3,300 (including labour, materials and GST), you must hold the licence for that work. For plumbing, drainage, gasfitting and fire protection, a licence is required regardless of the job value, even at $0. A trade contractor licence is what lets you contract directly to the public and take on work in your own name.
The two things that stall trade applications are the technical qualification for your specific trade and the managerial course required for contractor and nominee supervisor licences. Choose the wrong class for your scope, or lodge without the right evidence, and you pay a non-refundable 50% fee for a refusal.
To apply, you must satisfy QBCC’s requirements:
The Strategy Session is a paid, standalone 30-minute call that maps your exact licence pathway: class, evidence and sequencing. If you proceed to a full licence support package, the QBCC application fees are included in the package price, so there are no surprise government charges on top. One package, one price. All prices exclude GST and are tax deductible.
Confirm the trade class you need and qualifications.
