  • Licence liability condition: No insurance condition applies. The Security and Investigations Agents Act 2002 imposes none on the licence classes it does create, and no separate licence exists for this trade.

  • Licensing body: Locksmithing is not a named licence class in Tasmania. The security activities defined in the Security and Investigations Agents Act 2002 cover patrolling and guarding, bodyguard work and training in those activities, and no locksmith class appears among the licences the regulator lists. No provision expressly exempting locksmiths was located either, so this rests on the absence of a class rather than on a stated exclusion.

What contracts commonly ask for

Principals and head contractors set their own insurance requirements, and those are frequently higher than a licence condition. The requirement that binds is the higher of the two, and both have to be read from the actual document.

What this cover costs

This site publishes no cost benchmark for this cover. A benchmark needs a real sample of documents, and none is published until the sample is large enough to compute a median honestly. A benchmark from a handful of policies is a guess with a decimal point.
