A great reminder from Tasmania Fire Service, conditions remain dry so caution must be taken when conducting any burning.
If you see any signs of a fire re-igniting please call Triple Zero (000) immediately.

🔥 Reminder: Always supervise your burn-offs 🔥

Conditions across Tasmania remain dry, so it’s important to take extra care with any outdoor burning.

While Fire Permits are not currently required, people are encouraged to register burns in advance with Tasmania Fire Service by calling 1800 000 699.

Registering a burn will ensure your local brigade are aware of your plans should they need to respond, and you will prevent having a brigade turn up unnecessarily.

If you’re planning to burn:
• Always have an adult in attendance until the fire is completely extinguished
• Be prepared to manage the fire and monitor changing weather conditions
• Have suitable, working firefighting equipment on hand
• Never light fires in peat, humus or marram grass
• Let your neighbours know—smoke can impact health and farming operations (especially vineyards)

Before you leave any fire:
👉 Soak it.
👉 Stir it.
👉 Soak it again.

Also think carefully when lighting campfires or using machinery, and double check that recent fires (including fire pits) are fully out.

⚠️ Remember: Landowners are responsible for any damage caused by fires that escape their property.
📞 If you see signs of a fire re-igniting (smoke or flames), call Triple Zero (000) immediately.

🔥 The 2025/26 Fire Permit Period will end statewide tomorrow (Thursday, 9 April 2026).

ℹ️ From 2am tomorrow, if you’re considering burning on your property:
🤝 you don’t require a fire permit
🤝 BUT we encourage you to register your burn by calling 1800 000 699. Registering your burn will ensure your local Tasmania Fire Service brigade are aware of your plans and can respond accordingly.

📍 Remember:
➡️ Anyone conducting a burn must be capable of managing the fire and be mindful of changing weather conditions.
➡️ Make sure an adult is always attending the burn until it is fully extinguished.
➡️ Have suitable working firefighting equipment available to appropriately manage fire activity in the event that the fire begins to spread.
➡️ Never light fires in peat, humus, or marram grass.
➡️ Landowners are responsible for any damage caused by fires escaping their land.
➡️ Ensure your neighbours are aware and that your burn won’t adversely affect their health, or farming operations – particularly the wine industry, which is vulnerable to smoke.
➡️ Burning on private property is governed by local council by-laws and environmental laws about smoke emissions.
