Choosing, buying and renewing your annual pass

Purchase or renew an annual pass

There are four different types of annual pass (see the table below), so you can choose the pass that best meets your needs.

You can purchase or renew an annual pass:

  • Online - to purchase an annual pass online make your selection from one of the orange buttons in the form below. To renew your annual pass, the procedure is exactly the same. Online orders are processed through the secure NSW government online bookshop and will be delivered to you within 10 working days.
  • By phone - just call the OEH National Parks Contact Centre.
  • By fax or post - simply download the form [PDF 120KB], fill in and send.
  • In person at NSW national parks offices and visitor centres. 

Please note, your annual pass is only valid when affixed to the nominated motor vehicle. If you are visiting a park within the next ten days you are advised to purchase your annual pass at the visitor information centre, vehicle entry station or park office prior to entering the park. Proof of purchase is not sufficient to obtain park entry; you must have the annual pass to gain entry.
