Do I need to get my son's British birth certificate legalised?
Does anyone know if I need to get my son's British birth certificate legalised for the Aus Government to recognise it? We had to get our marriage certificate legalised for the name change on my passport and wondered if this was the same for registering my son as an Australian Citizen.
Thanks
Thanks

If you mean registering your son as an Australian citizen by descent then, no, it’s not necessary. You just upload a scanned copy.

Yes, that is what I mean. Thank you for the reply.
