QUEENSLAND REQUIREMENTS
02 Do I need a Queensland Airbnb registration or listing number? NO +
Queensland does not have a statewide Airbnb property register or listing-number scheme.
Council planning approvals, local-law approvals and licences are separate and must be checked under the responsible council.
03 Is there a Queensland short-stay levy or tax? NO +
No dedicated statewide Queensland short-stay levy has been identified.
04 Are there different rules for hosted and unhosted Airbnbs? NO +
NO — NOT THROUGH ONE STATEWIDE OPERATING SCHEDULE
Queensland does not impose one statewide hosted/unhosted Airbnb operating-condition schedule or annual night cap.
Councils can distinguish between home-hosted and whole-property short-stay uses through their planning schemes, local laws and approval conditions. The council-level section therefore controls the local answer.
Any council-specific approval or operating requirement belongs under the council-level section.
05 Is there a minimum stay or annual night cap? NO +
QUEENSLAND LEVEL
NO
Queensland has no universal statewide Airbnb minimum stay, 90-day limit, 180-day limit or annual booking-night cap.
Council planning schemes, local laws and property-specific approvals can impose local conditions.
PALM ISLAND ABORIGINAL SHIRE COUNCIL LEVEL
NO
No published Palm Island Aboriginal Shire Council rule has been identified that imposes a universal Airbnb-specific minimum stay or annual booking-night cap on ordinary private residential properties. Property-specific approvals can still impose conditions.
Any minimum rental periods applying to council-owned accommodation, staff housing, campsites or other authority-provided accommodation are service conditions. They are not private Airbnb restrictions.
PALM ISLAND ABORIGINAL SHIRE COUNCIL REQUIREMENTS
06 Do I need Palm Island Aboriginal Shire Council approval or a DA? NO +
CONDITIONAL — Queensland has no single statewide yes/no DA rule for STRA. The relevant council planning scheme, zone, overlays, use and existing approval control. Obtain the council fee calculation and checklist before lodging; payment does not guarantee approval.
Palm Island Aboriginal Shire Council checks:
- No — Hosted or unhosted treatment: No single Queensland-wide hosted/unhosted operating-condition schedule.
- No — Guest limit: No Queensland-wide STRA guest cap identified.
- No — Parking plan or condition: No statewide STRA parking number.

- No — Neighbour notification or contact: No statewide ongoing neighbour-contact rule.
- No — Waste plan: No statewide STRA waste plan.
- Check — Fire or evacuation requirements: Building classification, smoke alarms, pool safety and fire/egress requirements apply by property; council approval can require certification.

There is no standard Palm Island Aboriginal Shire Airbnb development-application fee applying to every owner.

If an individual property requires a development application, only the fee applying to that specific application should be shown.
08 Do I need a Palm Island Aboriginal Shire registration or permit number? NO +
Palm Island Aboriginal Shire Council does not have a published Airbnb-specific registration or permit-number scheme separate from any state or territory requirement and from a property-specific development approval.
09 Does Palm Island Aboriginal Shire charge an Airbnb registration or renewal fee? NO +
No published Palm Island Aboriginal Shire Airbnb-specific registration, listing, annual renewal, inspection or operating-permit fee has been identified. General authority fees unrelated to Airbnb must not be displayed as short-stay fees.
