Persons born outside Australia are also required to produce their full birth certificate. However, in the absence of that document they can produce their passport. If either of these documents are not in English they will need to be translated by a qualified interpreter into English.
If you have previously been married, original of the Decree Absolute or Death Certificate, whichever is applicable must be produced.
