If you intend to take photographs or film for commercial purposes, you must apply for permission from the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service before you film or photograph.
Commercial purposes include:
- filming or photography for sale, advertising or promotion or other business purposes
- sponsored or monetised content made by influencers, vloggers and other content creators.
When reviewing filming and photography applications, we consider:
- environmental impacts the filming may have
- benefits the filming may bring to parks, the public and New South Wales in general
- park values, visitor amenity and cultural values.
We keep a public register of filming and photography approvals.
