The Annual NSW Premier's Chinese Community Service Awards has been established in recognition of the long-standing presence of the Chinese community in NSW. Here since the earliest days of the colony of New South Wales and now one of the largest and fastest growing groups in Australia, the Chinese community has long been active in philanthropic and voluntary community activities.

In recognition of their distinguished history in NSW, these awards honour Chinese individuals for outstanding service within and beyond the Chinese community. Awarded to those who have demonstrated active and distinguished service to the community, the purpose of the awards is to acknowledge the social value of voluntary work within the Chinese community.

The awards will be presented each year by the Premier of NSW during the Lunar New Year Celebrations. Winners will receive a certificate and official citation. Members from any of the diverse Chinese communities in NSW are eligible for nomination under four categories
