FAQ

The Australian Digital ID Act came into effect on December 1, 2024, and aims to provide secure and convenient ways for Australian individuals to verify their identity with businesses and government services and also to enable the Commonwealth to partner with states, territories, and the private sector to create a better Digital ID experience. The Identity Verification Services Act 2023 enables the private sector or government to verify personal information using government records like passports, electoral rolls, or driving license records.

You can use a range of documents to verify your identity in Australia. However, according to myID by the Australian government, you must use an Australian passport to achieve a “strong” identity. Several documents can be used to prove identity, including passports, driving licenses, and notifications from an Australian government body to verify the birth name and address. AUSTRAC has published guidelines to help determine reliable and independent documentation.

The Document Verification System (DVS) verifies document authenticity by checking whether the biographical information on an Australian identity document matches the original record. It does not check facial images but will provide a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ response based on the accuracy of the data.

Yes, the Digital ID Act commenced on December 1, 2024. In this way, Australia is taking multiple steps to move forward more digitally by strengthening governance for Digital ID and giving legislative authority for the Australian Government Digital ID System (AGDIS) to expand and enhance data protections of consumers and customers.

The Digital ID Act provides for civil penalties imposed by the Regulator to help promote compliance of accredited providers. It also clarifies that breaches of the Digital ID Act’s privacy safeguards may be treated as interference with privacy under the Privacy Act.
