Citizenship

Citizenship ceremonies are hosted by the Mayor three times a year. The pledge of commitment taken during the ceremony is the final step in becoming an Australian citizen.  

A letter of invitation from the City is sent out to all eligible candidates approximately 5 weeks prior to the next ceremony date. Candidates must RSVP by the specified date to confirm a place at the ceremony.  

City of Nedlands residents are eligible to attend once they have completed the application process and received a letter of approval from the Department of Home Affairs.
