Adoption-related search, certificate and support services
The Department of Communities and Justice (DCJ) oversees adoption in NSW and provides the approval needed for a person to request information from the Registry.
The NSW Registry of Births, Deaths & Marriages (the Registry) ensures adoption related records are accurate and secure for all time.
You may need to interact with both agencies to find information about an adoption and update official records.
