Annual Fire Safety Statements – Parramatta

If you own or manage a building in the City of Parramatta local government area, you're required to lodge an Annual Fire Safety Statement (AFSS) every 12 months with both Parramatta Council and Fire & Rescue NSW. Missing the deadline can result in penalty notices starting at $1,000 per week — and escalating fast.

FireSafe provides end-to-end AFSS inspections across Parramatta. Our FPAS-accredited Fire Safety Assessors inspect every essential fire-safety measure in your building, issue a draft AFSS within 48 hours of defects being cleared, and provide you with a step-by-step lodgement guide so you can submit on time.

How to lodge your AFSS with Parramatta Council:

Building owners in the City of Parramatta LGA must submit their completed Annual Fire Safety Statement through Council's online portal along with a copy of their current Fire Safety Schedule. You must also lodge a copy with Fire & Rescue NSW through their online submission form at fire.nsw.gov.au — there is no lodgement fee. A copy of the AFSS and Fire Safety Schedule must be prominently displayed in the building. Incomplete or incorrect statements will be returned — which is why having an FPAS-accredited assessor prepare your documentation matters.
