Introduction to Citizenship

The City of Melville conducts citizenship ceremonies monthly in the Conference Room, located on the top level of the Civic Centre.

All new citizens are officiated by His Worship the Mayor, Russell Aubrey. Certificates will be presented to all new Australian citizens at the ceremonies. The certificate will become legal proof of your Australian citizenship.

You will also be able to complete an electoral enrolment form which registers you on the electoral roll and allows you to vote. At the ceremony, you will also make a pledge to receive citizenship.

Regardless of background, Australian citizens have full and equal membership of our society, including all the legal and political responsibilities accompanying such a status.
