Reptile keeper licences

Some native snakes, lizards, geckos, dragons and turtles can be kept as pets as long as you have a licence.

Native reptiles are protected by law so if you want to keep a native reptile as a pet you’ll need a

licence from the Office of Environment and Heritage (National Parks and Wildlife Service).

It is illegal to keep exotic (non-native) reptiles.

Native reptiles that can be kept as pets are each classed as R1, R2, R3, R4 and/or R5. The

right licence for you will depend on how many animals you want to keep and what type of animal you want.

Code of Practice for the Private Keeping of Reptiles

The Code of Practice for the Private Keeping of Reptiles is a guide for people licensed by the OEH to keep reptiles as pets.

Protecting native reptiles

It’s against the law (National Parks and Wildlife Act 1974) to take reptiles from the wild or release unwanted ones.

Taking animals from the wild, or even your backyard, can cause local extinctions.

Dumped animals can spread disease and suffer from starvation or predation.

Pet native reptiles must be bought from licensed dealers or breeders.
