Minimum Financial Requirements

From 1 July 2026, Victorian builders must meet the Minimum Financial Requirements. Learn what the changes mean and how to stay registered.
{{ tag.label }} {{ tag.label }} $vuetify.icons.faTimes

From 1 July 2026, Victorian builders will be subject to the Minimum Financial Requirements (MFR), a new framework that assesses financial capacity and sets a builder's Maximum Construction Capacity (MCC).

Whether you're an existing registered builder or applying for registration, it's important to understand your obligations, when you'll need to notify the Building and Plumbing Commission (BPC), and how the new requirements could affect your business.

In this handy resource, learn what the changes mean, how MFR, MCC and ANTA work, and what you need to do to become and stay registered.
