Interstate Licence Tasmania
Transfer Your Builder or Trade Licence to Tasmania with Confidence
Already licensed in another Australian state? You may be eligible to apply for an equivalent builder or trade licence in Tasmania under Australia’s mutual recognition arrangements. Trade Licence Solutions can assess your eligibility, prepare your application, and guide you through the licensing process from start to finish.
What is Interstate Licence Recognition?
Australia’s mutual recognition arrangements allow eligible builders and tradespeople who already hold a current licence in one state or territory to apply for an equivalent licence in Tasmania.
Rather than starting the licensing process from the beginning, eligible applicants may be able to use their existing licence to support their Tasmania application through Consumer, Building and Occupational Services (CBOS).
Our experienced consultants can review your current licence and help determine the best pathway.
