Browser support list

We must ensure that Queensland Government websites and web applications are functional for all browsers on the supported browsers list below.

If unsupported technologies prevent the delivery of static or alternate content, unspecified browsers should at least display the generic browser support error page.

Supported browsers

Supported browsers have high support for current web technologies and standards.

You should test websites and web applications in these browsers during development or when significant changes occur.

We identified these supported browsers after reviewing the statistics for May 2018 to September 2018 across Queensland Government websites and integrated applications (51,656,877 sessions during sample).
