Become an Australian Citizen

Becoming an Australian citizen is a significant life event. Australian citizenship represents a commitment to Australia and its people, and it gives individuals a sense of belonging to this diverse and vibrant country.

To become an Australian citizen: 

  • Once must meet certain eligibility criteria

  • Including holding a valid permanent residency visa

  • Meeting residence requirements

  • Passing a citizenship test

Once the eligibility requirements are met, individuals can apply for citizenship and participate in a citizenship ceremony, where they pledge their loyalty to Australia and its people and receive their certificate of Australian citizenship.

Australian citizenship provides several benefits, including the right to vote, access to government services and programs, and the ability to travel freely in and out of Australia. It also carries responsibilities, such as obeying Australian laws and defending Australia if called upon to do so.
