Fast. https://www.gotocourt.com.au/family-law/recognition-of-an-overseas-marriage/ The rules that govern whether or not an overseas marriage is valid under Australian law are found in the Marriage Act 1961. If you were married overseas it will usually be recognised as valid in Australia if at the time you married: - your marriage was recognised as valid under the law of the country in which you married, and - it would have been recognised as a valid marriage under Australian law if you had married in Australia. If you married overseas there is no requirement to register the marriage in Australia. The Marriage Act 1961 states that an original or certified copy of a marriage certificate or record of marriage that is issued by the competent authority in a foreign country is proof of that overseas marriage and of the validity of the marriage. If you or someone you know is concerned about the validity of an overseas marriage, or you have concerns about citizenship following an overseas marriage, one of our family lawyers will be delighted to assist.
