Compliance certificates need to be obtained from an authorised person. Licensed building surveyors (certifiers) in the ACT are automatically deemed an authorised person as they currently certify swimming pools or spas are built to the prescribed safety standards.

A list of additional approved authorised persons can be found in the Building (Regulated Swimming Pools Authorised Person) Appointment 2024.

Contact information for authorised persons can be found under the ‘More information’ heading above. Before engaging an authorised person, you should ask what type of insurance cover they have and consider if you are happy to engage their services.

Please be aware that compliance certificates are not required for disclosure until 1 May 2028 (i.e. after the transition period).
