# Custom forms (/docs/features/custom-forms) If the form you need is not in the public library, use **Request a template**. You can request: * A shared template suggestion that may become public * A private custom template for your business Custom templates can be compliance, daily operational, or customer-facing paperwork. ## Where to request a template [#where-to-request-a-template] Use **Request a template** from: * [**Templates**](https://tradieforms.com.au/app/templates) * **New form** when there is no good match * [**Support**](https://tradieforms.com.au/app/help) * Related template pages You need to be signed in. ## Request types [#request-types] | Type | Who can use it | Notes | | ----------------------------------- | --------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Shared template** | May become available to all users | Best for common state, trade, or industry paperwork | | **Custom template for my business** | Private to your account or team | One-off build quote from $59 AUD, plus Solo or Team while it stays live | Final build pricing depends on the PDF, number of fields, signatures, tables, calculations, and special download needs. Your plan keeps the template available for your workspace. ## What to include [#what-to-include] Add: * State and trade * Template name * Why you need it * Who receives or lodges the finished PDF * Whether it should be public or private * A PDF sample if you have one PDF attachments must be 10 MB or smaller. ## What happens next [#what-happens-next] 1. Tradie Forms receives the request 2. We review the PDF, scope, and pricing 3. We follow up if anything is unclear 4. Once built and enabled, the template appears in **Templates** Private templates require Solo or Team because they use cloud drafts and account access. Custom templates are built by the Tradie Forms team. They do not appear instantly after request.
