Current Processing Times

Last updated 22 September, 2009

Processing times for Registrations and Certificates are subject to compliance with Registry requirements and delays occur if the application is not complete or correct identification not supplied.

Certificates

 Our processing times don't include postage delivery, however all certificates
 (except Family History) are distributed through Registered Post. This does
 not ensure next day delivery. Add $8.00 for International express post.
