Notarial Services
In some countries, foreigners must provide evidence that they are free to marry, before a legal marriage ceremony can be held in that country. The CNI is a general statement of the law in Australia concerning the recognition of foreign marriages. It states that the person named in the certificate has signed a declaration and, on the basis that the declaration is true and correct, there is no legal reason why they cannot marry.
The Certificate also states that we are unable to confirm whether the person named is actually free to marry. This is because there is no central marriage registry in Australia, and we are not able to check or confirm that the person is not already married. A CNI is not a requirement under Australian law.
The client must check whether or not their CNI must be issued in that country, or if a CNI issued in Australia or a third country is acceptable, with the government authorities where they intend to marry. Rules can vary in different parts of the same country. Because of this, the client should also be encouraged to check with the government authorities in the state or province where they intend to get married.
The CNI Application Form can be found at: https://smartraveller.gov.au/services/legalising-documents/documents/form-no-impediment-marriage.pdf
You need to submit the following documents with your application.
Applicant:
- Australian passport
- Foreign passport with evidence of permanent residence in Australia
(If you can't provide an Australian or foreign passport, you will require cardinal identity documents (such as a birth certificate, citizenship certificate or ID card). You must supply at least one form of photo identification.)
- Divorce Certificate for previous marriage (if applicable)
- Former partner's Death Certificate (if applicable)
- If under 18 years of age, copy of the judicial authorisation to marry issued by an Australian court of law
Partner:
- Australian passport, or
- Foreign passport
(If you can't provide an Australian or foreign passport, you will require cardinal identity documents (such as a birth certificate, citizenship certificate or ID card). You must supply at least one form of photo identification.)
- Divorce Certificate for previous marriage (if applicable)
- Former partner's Death Certificate (if applicable)
- If under 18 years of age, copy of the judicial authorisation to marry issued by an Australian court of law
Documents can be originals or certified as true copies by an authorised local provider. Documents not in English need to be accompanied by a certified translation. In Australia, the translation needs to be prepared by a translator certified by the National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters (NAATI). Overseas, translations need to be prepared by a translator recognised by the Australian Embassy, High Commission or Consulate.
** Please note that you must sign the application form at the Embassy.

An affidavit is a legally binding statement of fact used as evidence in court or other legal proceedings. The person making the affidavit must swear an oath (a religious statement) or make an affirmation (a non-religious statement) that the contents of the affidavit are true and correct. It is an offence to swear or affirm false statements.
DFAT's role is to establish the identity of the person making the affidavit and administer the oath/affirmation. We do not endorse or rely on the content of the affidavit.
Given the importance of an affidavit, you need to make sure you have confirmed with your legal representative, or receiving authority, if there are special instructions for how we will administer your affidavit. It is important to make sure you are requesting the correct service from us.
If an affidavit contains attachments or is multiple pages, DFAT will bind the pages together as a general rule. Please confirm with your legal representative, or receiving authority, whether the binding of the pages together will mean your affidavit is not legal.
Please note that DFAT cannot provide you with legal advice. You must confirm the details of your requirements before approaching us for assistance.
