Use this guide to prepare Form 19 - Final inspection certificate in Tradie Forms. The web form follows the current Queensland PDF sections.
Form 19 is not a plumber’s general completion note. Business Queensland says the relevant local government or public sector entity uses it to certify that permit work is compliant, operational and fit for use. They can issue it for all work under a permit or a distinct completed part.
Open the QLD Form 19 template when you have the authority’s inspection and issuing details ready.
Enter the street address, lot and plan, shop or tenancy number, storey or level, and local government area for the land covered by the certificate.
Use the same land description as the permit. Address search can fill the street details and may fill the local government area, but check both against the permit before continuing.
For a staged development or multi-tenancy job, make sure the land and scope details identify the completed part without relying on an internal job nickname.
Copy the permit number and date issued from the current permit. Do not copy them from an invoice or an old job record. If the permit was amended, check which permit record the authority used for the inspection.
Choose whether the certificate applies to all work under the permit or part of the work.
If you select part of the work, the description becomes required. Name the completed townhouse, stage, floor, area or plumbing work clearly enough that an owner can understand what the certificate covers without opening the full permit file.

Business Queensland guidance says copies are issued to the permit holder and owner. Keep the finished certificate with the permit, amendments and inspection record. Put a part-work description in the filename or job note so it is not mistaken for whole-permit completion later.
