QLD building certs scatter across PDF tabs

What slows competent persons and pool safety inspectors in Queensland.

  • Site and owner details re-typed

    Development address, lot details, and owner contacts should carry from your last Form 12, 16, or 21 on that project.

  • Aspect vs design-spec vs final blocks

    Different certificate types hide different declaration sections, easy to complete the wrong block on a flat PDF.

  • Pool safety paperwork on a phone

    Form 26 nonconformity and Form 36 no-pool-certificate notices are awkward in a generic PDF editor between inspections.

QLD Form 12 form preview

Guided building forms keep inspection, aspect, and handover details organised by job stage.

Building certification paperwork in Queensland

Queensland building certifiers, competent persons, and QBCC licensees issue inspection and aspect certificates through the building development process. Pool safety inspectors and owners also use QBCC pool safety forms for transactions and nonconformity notices.

Form 12 aspect inspection certificate
The appointed competent person certifies a specific aspect of building work, such as waterproofing or smoke detection, before the next stage proceeds. Provide the completed PDF to the certifier or building development process that requires it. Tradie Forms does not lodge the certificate for you.
Form 15 design or specification compliance certificate
The appointed competent person certifies the design or specification aspect of building work before construction proceeds. Provide the completed PDF through the building certification process for the development. Tradie Forms does not lodge the certificate for you.
Form 16 stage inspection certificate
The building certifier or competent person certifies a stage of building work completed under a building development approval. Provide the completed PDF through the building certification process. Tradie Forms does not lodge the certificate for you.
Form 21 final inspection certificate
The building certifier issues the final inspection certificate for class 1a or class 10 buildings or structures before occupation or handover. Provide the completed PDF through the building certification process. Tradie Forms does not lodge the certificate for you.
Form 30 and Form 43 QBCC aspect certificates
Form 30 covers accepted development aspect work. Form 43 is the QBCC licensee aspect certificate for nominated building work aspects. Provide completed PDFs through the building development process that requires them. Tradie Forms does not lodge the certificates for you.
Pool safety Forms 26 and 36
Form 26 is the pool safety nonconformity notice from a licensed pool safety inspector. Form 36 is the notice when no pool safety certificate is in effect during a sale or lease. Give completed PDFs to the pool owner, purchaser, or tenant as required. Tradie Forms does not lodge the notices for you.

Official guidance: Queensland building certification. Tradie Forms is not affiliated with the regulator named above.
