While the requirements may vary from town to town, Australia has certain standard marriage laws. Anyone who wants to get married cannot be married to anyone else and cannot marry a parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, or sibling. All individuals must be at least 18, or 16 with the consent of the courts. There are specific words that must be used during the ceremony to signify consent to the marriage, and all individuals must file a written notice of intention to marry with their officiant or celebrant. Marriages may also be performed only be an officiant or celebrant authorized under Australian law.

The legal age to get married is 18. Most states will allow 16 and 17 year olds to get married with the permission of the parents. Younger is seldom allowed, but a few places allow it with a court order and parental permission.
