Tradespeople who are applying for a contractor or nominee supervisor licence in any of the trade contractor classes must submit a completed Trade Contractors Licence Application Form.

Even if you have a licence from another state, it will not allow you to undertake construction work in Queensland, and you will need to apply for a QBCC licence before you can begin.
