Learn moreLocal requirements in Queensland
Civil certificates for Queensland are issued by the Queensland Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages. For an apostille, DFAT generally requires the original certificate issued by the registry; we can order it for you if you no longer have it. For driver licence conversions, the Department of Transport and Main Roads usually requires an English translation of a non-English overseas licence.
Queensland's growing economy and migration from Asia and the Pacific drive steady demand for visa translations, overseas powers of attorney and business interpreting from Brisbane to Cairns.
