Business Support

Welcome to Council’s Business Portal. If you are thinking of starting a business, expanding your current business or even relocating your business to the Queanbeyan region this page will provide you with some of the information you need.

Thinking of Starting a Home Business?

Are you thinking of starting up a business in your home?

Did you know there are Council regulations that control what types of businesses can be operated from a place of residence?

These controls are in place to reduce the impact (eg environmental, parking) that your business may have on the surrounding area.

So before you start your home business check Queanbeyan's Local Environmental Plan (1998) for rules and regulations that may affect you starting a business in your home or contact Queanbeyan’s Council's Customer Service Centre on 02 6285 6000.
