Existing registered premises
If you are taking over a business from an existing operator, you will need to indicate on the registration application form that you are applying for a continuing registration. In addition to the standard details on the registration form, the details and signatures of the new operator and the existing operator will be required.
It is a requirement that the existing operator notify the buyer of the need to hold a registration certificate.
You may apply for a search through Council to confirm that there is a current Registration Certificate and to ascertain the current level of compliance. This process may require written permission from the vendor.
- Application for Continuing Registration Certificate
If the nature or scale of the business is changing, you may require Development Approval for a Material Change of Use before obtaining a Registration Certificate.
Contact Council on 4044 3044 prior to the lodgement of the Continuing Registration Certificate application.
