Before arriving in Italy you should obtain the Atto Notorio which is a sworn statement, from the Italian Embassy or Consulate in Australia, you should contact the Italian Consulate in the country where you live for an appointment.

The Atto notorio can be obtained in Italy as well, and if so, we will assist you with legal procedure needed.

You may need to have documents translated, the Italian consulate will give you a list of translators who are qualified to do this.

Nulla Osta you need in order to get married is issued by the Australian Embassy in Italy http://www.italy.embassy.gov.au/rome/Marriage.html
