Property Agents' Industry Automatic Mutual Recognition (AMR)

What is AMR?

The Automatic Mutual Recognition scheme is an Australian Government-led initiative which operates in all Australian states and territories excluding Queensland.
​
AMR is designed to stream-line the mechanism for people who need to be licensed or registered for their job to work in other states and territories.  Under AMR, there is no need to obtain a local licence in a second state or pay any licensing fees if already licensed to perform the same activities in the Home State.
 
Importantly, AMR only applies to individuals.  Individuals or companies running a business in Tasmania are excluded from AMR.
Notice of Intention
Information Sheet

What you should know if you are considering working in Tasmania under AMR?

To be eligible to work in Tasmania under AMR you must hold a current licence or registration in your Home State or Territory for the activity covered by the occupation you intend to undertake in Tasmania. 

Property Agents who want to work in Tasmania under AMR from another State or Territory are required to notify the Property Agents Board of Tasmania of their intention to undertake regulated functions by submitting a Notice of Intention and show that the public protection requirements are met before commencing any activity in Tasmania.
 
Before undertaking any activities in Tasmania, the business you are working for must hold a licence to conduct business in Tasmania and you must notify the Board who your employing property agent is.

Obligations under AMR

While undertaking regulated activities in Tasmania, you are subject to Tasmanian legislation and disciplinary arrangements. 
It is your responsibility to understand and abide by all the requirements as outlined by the Mutual Recognition Act 1992 and the  Property Agents and Land Transactions Act 2016 and its associated legislation, the Property Agents Board Code of Conduct and Residential Tenancy Act 1997.
 
Individuals operating under AMR in Tasmania are also required to fulfill specific CPD requirements within 12-24 months of the AMR notice.  Thereafter, additional CPD may be required to maintain currency of Tasmanian operating conditions.
 
Further details relating to working under AMR in Tasmania is provided in the Information Sheet – About AMR
