Nurses and midwives currently registered or enrolled in another state or territory in Australia

Please note that if you hold current registration or enrolment in another state or territory in Australia, you do not need to undertake another assessment of your qualification/s.  Instead you can register under the Mutual Recognition Act 1992.  For information on this process, please go to Interstate Educated Nurses and scroll down to Application Requirements for Interstate Educated Applicants under Mutual Recognition Act 1992.

Similarly, if you hold current registration or enrolment in South Australia, it is not necessary for you to be further assessed for registration or enrolment in other states or territories in Australia or New Zealand. However, you will need to contact the relevant nurse regulatory authority to undertake their registration process before you can work as either a nurse, midwife, mental health nurse or nurse practitioner.
