The Complete VicSmart Guide is the No.1 DIY planning permit application guide in Victoria.
It is a nominal fee-based service published by Victorian Smart Planning – Permit Application Services (VSPPAS), a town planning business.
Each application is checked by a Town Planner within 24 hours, before lodging with the council for assessment, along with the council planning assessment fee.

| Estimated cost of development | VicSmart Guide fee | Council Assessment fee |
| $0 – $10,000 | $150 + GST | $220.50 |
| More than $10,000 | $300 + GST | $473.60 |
