Here is what it entails in Victoria.

From the list of prohibited weapons in Victoria is the following:-

"Laser pointers
Hand-held battery-operated articles that are designed or adapted to emit a laser beam with an accessible emission limit of greater than 1 mW."

To be licensed, you need:-

Application for the Chief Commissioner of Police's Approval for a Prohibited Weapon. (Time and energy around completing that including the usual 140 points of identification and certified copies of identification documents. Having a suitable referee. Giving acceptable reason(s) why approval should be given for you to possess and use the prohibited weapon.)

An application/licence fee of $154 (when I applied in 2007) for a three year licence.

Meeting storage requirements of a "locked cupboard, cabinet or safe of sturdy construction" etc.

Here is the URL for documents:-
