Permits

You will need a permit to perform certain activities in Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park or visit Aboriginal land outside the park.

Activities in the park that require a permit include:

• filming, taking photos, journalism, recording audio or artworks depicting Uluṟu or Kata Tjuṯa for commercial and public purposes (this includes social media influencers, content creators and bloggers)
