This guide explains how to apply for or renew a tourist or service sign approval, and potential costs for sign installation, maintenance and removal.

If your application is successful, you must pay for sign design, manufacturing, installation and maintenance. If you close or move your business, you may be required to pay for sign removal.

You can apply for a tourist or service sign to guide visitors to your attraction or service if you meet certain requirements. This applies to all signage on state-controlled roads.

We pay our respects to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ancestors of this land, their spirits and their legacy. The foundations laid by these ancestors—our First Nations peoples—give strength, inspiration and courage to current and future generations towards creating a better Queensland.

Your application will be assessed by the Queensland Government on road and traffic considerations, with the Regional Tourism Organisation providing advice on tourism merit for tourist attraction, accommodation services and tourist drive signs. Proposed tourist and service signs will only be considered if road safety and efficiency will not be compromised.
