legally - yes, but it will cost you about a gazillion dollars to have it inspected and tested to australian standards.

illegally - yes, because it is a massively simple procedure. but you can be fined up to $10k if you get caught.

Is there anyone in the Eastern suburbs who can perform this simple operation?

read part two of my answer, and ask yourself if any commercial organisation is going to perform an illegal operation.

if you are asking is there a commercial organisation that will alter the phone and test it against australian standards, i am sure there are plenty. though it would have to be a pretty special phone to pay over $2k+++ for all the testing and formal approval (because you are petitioning to bring 1 telephone in, not a batch of a 1000, it is a very expensive prospect).

unless it is a phone that you cannot live without, that your will is made out to and cooks your breakfast, dont waste your money.
