Members of the Victorian Legislative Council, 1904–1907

This is a list of members of the Victorian Legislative Council at the election of 1 June 1904, up to the election of 4 June 1907. As half of the Legislative Council's terms expired at each triennial election, half of these members were elected at the 1902 election with terms expiring in 1907, while the other half were elected at the 1904 triennial election with terms expiring in 1910.

The Electoral Provinces Boundaries Act 1903 defined 17 Provinces with two members each, with one member for Public and Railway Officers Province making 35 members total.

Note the "Term in Office" refers to that members term(s) in the Council, not necessarily for that Province.
