Fees and fines: Department of Education

An overview of the fees and fines that we charge.

Our fees and fines

We charge fees and fines in accordance with all Victorian Government departments. This includes:

  • fees for services and regulatory purposes, including licensing and registering certain activities
  • fines for improper conduct, and to discourage unlawful behaviour.

Fees and fines are officially set and revised by their relevant legislation.

The Victorian Government has a policy of automatically indexing certain fees and fines each year for inflation, so that the value of those fees and fines is maintained.
