Can I apply for a license if I am overseas?

Published: Jul 3, 2024

Short answer

Yes. Overseas plumbers can start the process by completing a TRA skills assessment through an approved RTO. A successful assessment results in an Offshore Technical Skills Record (OTSR), which you can then use to apply for a provisional licence with the relevant Australian state or territory regulator.
