From Wednesday 01 April 2026, fire permits will no longer be required in the Mid Coast.
Residents should remain cautious when undertaking burn-offs, even once the Bush Fire Danger Period has finished.
Where permits are no longer needed, residents must still notify their neighbours and the local fire authority at least 24 hours before lighting a fire, which can be done easily on the RFS website.
People should also check whether a Bush Fire Hazard Reduction Certificate is required and ensure they have the equipment and resources needed to safely manage the burn.
- Letting fire authorities know about planned burning helps avoid unnecessary callouts for local firefighters.

Residents planning to burn off can notify their local brigade using the online burn notification tool at www.rfs.nsw.gov.au/notify
