Applying for a contractor licence can feel overwhelming, but with the right form and clear instructions you can finish the process in minutes. The fillable PDF below is the official Application for Contractor Licence used by the Building Commission of New South Wales.
The Building Commission mandates a completed licence application for anyone who intends to contract, sub‑contract, or advertise residential building or trade work valued over $5,000. Submitting the correct form ensures your licence is processed without delay and keeps you compliant with the Home Building Act 1989.
Instead of downloading the PDF and editing it manually, simply click the "Fill out this form" button on this page. The Formize PDF Filler app will load, letting you type directly into each field, save progress, and download a completed copy ready for submission.
Once you have a completed PDF, bring it to your booked Service NSW appointment or upload it through the online portal. The Building Commission will review your qualifications, fitness‑and‑propriety, and insurance details. You’ll receive a notification of approval, rejection, or a request for additional information within 2‑4 weeks.
