Asbestos removal licence: Amending a class type
If you hold a current asbestos removal licence, you can apply to amend the class type covered by this licence.
Class type amendments
To change the class type of your licence, you can apply for a new licence or apply to amend your existing licence. To change your class type from Class B to Class A, you’ll need to apply for a new licence. Applications for a new licence incur a fee. Other licence amendments are free.
When you apply to amend a licence, the online form uses your current licence information. This means you may not need to supply all supporting documents required for a new application.
Amending your licence will not change your current licence expiry date
