Tasmania scrapped the annual fire safety check. The Building Act 2016 replaced it with an approved schedule of maintenance for the building's essential building services, prepared by the owner and approved by a building surveyor, with maintenance done to that schedule rather than simply once a year.

Under section 206 of the Building Act 2016 a Tasmanian responsible owner must keep the maintenance records and produce them to an authorised officer or to the Tasmania Fire Service Chief Officer on request. Penalties reach 100 penalty units for an individual and 500 for a body corporate.
