Builders, electricians, plumbers and other tradespeople in New South Wales must hold an Individual Contractor Licence when the value of a building job exceeds $5,000. The licence proves you meet the competency and insurance requirements set by the Building Commission NSW.
This licence authorises a single person to carry out licensed building work in NSW. It can be endorsed with a “Q” to act as a Qualified Supervisor, or with specialist endorsements for trades such as air‑conditioning, plumbing, or medical‑gas work.
