WA Online Licence Search is the state register operated by the Department of Local Government, Industry Regulation and Safety. It records holders of occupational licences, registrations, permits, certificates and accreditations issued under Western Australian law by three divisions of the department. Search fields: A licence type must be selected first; the form then exposes, per type, company/business or family name, first name, location or post code, a search-all-WA option, date of birth (for individual credentials such as High Risk Work Licence and Construction Induction Training Card), and charity category for the Charity type. The application also carries a licence-number lookup path. Records returned include the licensee or entity name, licence number, licence type and sub-type (individual, body corporate/company, partnership), licence status, expiry date, entity type, trading names where held, and a business locality.

Domain Rating
71Ahrefs snapshot, measured
Domain Rating est un instantané daté d’Ahrefs de l’autorité du domaine. PetroHrys Score is an independent editorial assessment of the directory’s practical business value. They are separate measurements and are never combined. Domain Rating is measured by Ahrefs and read through their public Domain Rating API. Each value carries the date it was read and describes the whole domain that was measured, not the individual page it appears beside. Where several records are published on one measured domain they repeat that domain’s single dated reading rather than each carrying a figure of its own. A record shown as not measured is a record nobody has a reading for, which is not the same as a record measured at zero. Domain Rating is a third-party metric produced by their respective providers, not by PetroHrys.com. Each recorded value carries its provider and the date it was measured, and describes the domain that was measured rather than one page on it. No source has been consulted for authority score, trafic estimé and domaines référents, so they are not published for any record.

Public access
Open The search opens and returns results without any account, login or payment. Selecting a licence type and entering a name returns full licence records — licensee or entity name, licence number, licence type and sub-type, status, expiry date and locality.
WA Online Licence Search can be searched free of charge and without an account, directly from the Department of Local Government, Industry Regulation and Safety.
For construction and workplace-safety due diligence it also confirms high risk work, asbestos removal and demolition authorisations.
Covers 35 distinct licence types spanning three separate regulators in one department — Building and Energy, Consumer Protection and WorkSafe — so it is a department-wide occupational licensing search, not a building-industry tool.
ASIC registers companies, business names, financial advisers and banned persons under federal law. This register records Western Australian occupational authorisations that ASIC does not hold at all: electrical contractors and workers, gasfitting permits, plumbing contractors, tradesperson plumbers and restricted plumbing permits, building and painting contractors and practitioners, building surveying contractors and practitioners, motor vehicle dealers, salespersons, repairers, repair businesses and yard managers, real estate and settlement agents, land valuers, debt collectors, employment agents, charitable collections licences, and WorkSafe high risk work licences and assessor accreditations, asbestos assessor and Class A/B asbestos removal licences, demolition licences and construction induction training cards.
Limites
It does not establish corporate existence, legal personality or entity identifiers.
Contact details are withheld by law — the department's own form states "email and telephone details cannot be released under the relevant legislation."
Downloadable bulk registers exist only for builders, building surveyors, painters and building engineers; the other 31 licence types are query-only.
The free tier returns index data; extracts, certificates and lodged documents are a separate paid product.
Conseils pour la soumission
Records are created through incorporation, registration, filing, or statutory processes.

Establishing required submission assets requires submitting a listing and observing the result. That has not been done for any directory in this dataset, so it is not published rather than estimated.

The PetroHrys Score is a first-party editorial assessment, not a third-party
authority metric. It is the weighted sum of the ten factors above, divided by ten, so the number
on this page is reproducible from the values shown. Each factor is scored from 0 to 10 by a human reviewer and weighted as shown. The definitions describe what was weighed, not a rubric: no threshold or formula maps a directory onto a value, and two reviewers could reach different numbers. The score is reproducible from the factors shown on every record, but it is an editorial judgement, not a measurement.
