Restricted Asbestos Removal Licence - Western Australia

You may require this licence if you intend to undertake any work that will involve the removal of non-friable asbestos or asbestos-containing materials. This licence will authorise you to remove bonded (non-friable) asbestos in amounts exceeding 10 square metres in total, but not friable asbestos.

If you intend to remove all forms of asbestos (both friable and non-friable), you should instead apply for an unrestricted asbestos licence.
