Queensland uses a different cut-off date from every other state. An asbestos register is not required if the workplace building was constructed after 31 December 1989 and no asbestos has been identified or is likely to be present. Everywhere else the date is 31 December 2003.

Before demolition, refurbishment, maintenance or service work in Queensland, the register must be reviewed for buildings built before 31 December 1989 and for non-building structures and plant installed before 31 December 2003. The contractor must obtain a copy before starting, and if there is no register the structure has to be inspected first.
