Australia is introducing new forms for passport renewals as the federal government tries to crack down on identity fraud.
From July 1, a new form will be introduced to help strengthen the identity management process when a person applies to renew their passport, according to a report from Australian Associated Press.
The new forms are designed to ensure the names included in replacement passports match those recorded on state and territory births, deaths and marriages registers or the Australian citizenship register.
Renewal applicants will be required to submit their old passports as supporting documentation when seeking a replacement passport. Old forms can be used until Sep. 30.
