No, your White card does not expire.

However, under National WHS harmonisation measures, the NT WHS legislation was updated in 2011, the SA WHS legislation in 2012 and the WA WHS legislation in 2022. 

In 2016, the unit of competency attached to the White Card was changed to CPCWHS1001 Prepare to work safely in the construction industry.

If it has been a while since you sat your White Card (i.e. before the unit code change or the WHS legislation change), you may wish to re-sit a White Card course to ensure you have the most current and up to date WHS information.  Sometimes, your employer or potential employer, may make it a condition of your employment that you resit.

Civil Train SA can only re-issue white cards that have been obtained through studies at Civil Train SA.

If you have not worked in the construction industry for two years, SafeWork SA regulations require you to complete white card training again and you cannot apply to have your white card replaced. You will need to confirm verbally or in writing that you have been working within the industry during the last 2 years.

Replacement white cards will only be issued for unit of competency completed from 1 January 2010 onwards.

The white card replacement fee is $40.00 including GST and postage is free of charge. Payment must be made within 7 days of ordering the card.

Clients may either order and collect the white card in person at the Civil Train head office in Thebarton on a Wednesday only, or by contacting Civil Train via email at courses@ccfsa.com.au.

When ordering your white card, you will need to provide the following:

  • Photo ID to verify your identity (drivers’ licence, proof of age card or passport).
  • Passport style photograph from the shoulders up. No hats, sunglasses, beanies, filters or editing etc; photos which fail to meet criteria will be rejected.
  • Postal address that the white card is to be sent to (if client does not come in to collect in person).
  • Change of name evidence (required if name has changed). This can include certificate of marriage, deed poll or gender reassignment medical certificate.
  • Please confirm that you have carried out construction work in the last 2 years.

We do not guarantee a same day service for white card replacements. Please allow up to two weeks for delivery via Australia Post letter post.
