​Mutual Recognition

Mutual Recognition of Licensing
The Mutual Recognition legislation enacted by the Commonwealth and each State/Territory Parliament in 1992 and 1993 entitles people who are licensed in any other State or Territory to also be registered in an equivalent category in Tasmania.

The procedure is that the person who is licensed in the other state or territory may lodge a written notice with this Board seeking to be registered in connection with the equivalent occupation in accordance with the Mutual Recognition principle.
Go to Application Forms

The notice must contain the following information.
  • State that the person is licensed in the occupation in the first State and specify that State;
  • State the occupation in which licensing is sought and that it is being sought in accordance with the Mutual Recognition principle;
  • Specify all the States in which the person has substantive licensing in the equivalent occupation;
  • State that the person is not the subject of disciplinary proceedings in any State (including any preliminary investigations or action that might lead to disciplinary proceedings) in relation to those occupations; 
  • ​State that the person's licensing in any State is not cancelled or currently suspended as a result of disciplinary action;​​
  • State that the person is not otherwise personally prohibited from carrying on any such occupation in any State and is not subject to any special limitations, or restrictions or conditions in carrying on that occupation, as a result of criminal or civil or disciplinary proceedings in any State; and
  • Give consent to the making of inquiries of and the exchange of information with the authority of any State regarding the person's activities in the relevant occupation or otherwise regarding matters relevant to the notice.
  • The notice must be accompanied by a document that is either the original or a copy of the instrument evidencing the person's existing licence. The person must certify in the notice that the accompanying document is the original or a complete and accurate copy of the original.
  • The statement and other information in the notice must be verified by statutory declaration.
