The Tasmanian cemetery register includes the following information:
- the name and address of the cemetery
- the full name and business address of the cemetery manager
- the business name, if any, under which the cemetery is managed
- a way to identify the area used for the cemetery.
Burials on private land, in keeping with section 29 of the Burial and Cremation Act, are not cemeteries.
If a cemetery manager knows there is incorrect, incomplete or missing information in the cemetery register they must tell the regulator as soon as possible and provide the correct information. A fine may apply if a cemetery manager does not notify the regulator.
Landowners can tell the regulator if they think their land is a cemetery or has more than one monument on it and if it is not listed in the register. A fine may apply if a landowner does not notify the regulator.
The cemetery register is current at October 2025 and is updated quarterly.
