Can I fill it on my phone?

Will this PDF be accepted?
Tradie Forms downloads your answers in the official PDF layout where supported. Always preview and check the completed PDF before sending, lodging, or handing it over. Tradie Forms does not lodge or certify the form for you.

Aspect certificates slow down completion

What trips up appointed competent persons before the building certifier gets the paperwork.

  • Same competent person details every job

    Name, company, licence, and postal address should carry over when you inspect the same trade on the next job.

  • Long narrative blocks on a flat PDF

    Basis, extent, and reference documentation are hard to fill cleanly on a phone PDF viewer.

  • Certifiers expect the PDF in order

    Generic PDF editors do not match the Building Regulation 2021 Form 12 field order.
