Default Passport changes ?

Hi there, I have recently married my fiancee and we are moving to Oz in 6 weeks. Should we inform the passport office of her change of name or can we change it when we arrive there. The visa issued for her is in her original maiden name. Can anyone help me with this ?
Thanks alot.

Easier if you leave it till you get here. Then you can get a new passport, and get a visa sticker in the new name - free of charge - at the local DIMA office.
Also remember, the tickets must be issued in the name on the passport!!
