📍 Brisbane Tree Regulations & Permits (2025 Guide)
Thinking about removing or pruning a tree on your property in Brisbane? 🌳 Before you start, it’s important to understand Brisbane City Council’s tree regulations and permit requirements for 2025.
Some trees are considered protected vegetation under local laws. This means you may need a Vegetation Protection Order (VPO) permit before trimming, lopping, or removing them — especially if they meet certain size, species, or location criteria. Non-compliance can lead to hefty fines, so it pays to be informed.
Our latest guide breaks down:
✅ When a permit is required (and when it’s not)
✅ How to apply for council approval
✅ The difference between routine maintenance and restricted works
✅ Common exemptions (like dangerous or dead trees)
✅ Why hiring a qualified arborist can save you time, stress, and money
