What is Form 43?
Form 43, commonly referred to as the Aspect Certificate (QBCC Licensee), is crucial for licensed builders in Queensland, Australia. This document certifies that certain aspects of construction, like waterproofing or wet area sealing, adhere to building regulations. It plays a vital role in ensuring that the work meets safety and quality standards, especially for single detached class 1a buildings and class 10 structures. Obtaining this certificate is essential for securing the necessary approvals for your construction project.
What is Form 43 used for?
Form 43 serves an important role in building compliance:
- Certifies that aspect work for single detached class 1a buildings and class 10 structures meets development approval.
- States the scope of the aspect work under the QBCC license class.
- Provides descriptions of the property and building/structure.
- Ensures compliance with specific sections of the Building Regulation 2021.

Who is required to fill out Form 43?
Form 43 is to be completed by Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC) licensees who have performed or are authorized to perform the aspect work, including both occupational and contractor licensees holding the required class of license.
After completion, the form is used by the QBCC licensee to communicate compliance of the aspect work with the building development approval to the building certifier, ensuring adherence to standards and regulations.
When is Form 43 not required?
Form 43 is not required when the work does not involve a Building Development Approval (BDA) for single detached Class 1A or Class 10 buildings or structures. Additionally, it is unnecessary for aspects that fall outside the QBCC licensee's license class. Remember, non-compliance notices are issued by building certifiers, not competent persons.
When is Form 43 due?
The deadline for Form 43, the Aspect Certificate for QBCC licensees, is when the licensee finishes aspect work on a single detached class 1a building or a class 10 building or structure. This certification ensures that the work meets the required building development approval standards as outlined in the Building Regulation 2021.
