NSW Fair Trading

NSW Fair Trading safeguards the rights of all consumers and advises business and traders on fair and ethical practice. Fair Trading provides direct services for individuals and businesses to create a fair, safe and equitable marketplace. The laws Fair Trading administer set the rules for fairness in the countless daily transactions between consumers and traders. Unfair practices are investigated and help ensure products sold in NSW are safe and meet their regulations and safety standards. We register co-operatives and associations, and issue occupational licenses so consumers can trust the people they are dealing with and ensure unqualified or inappropriate people do not work in a range of NSW industries.
