How to transfer my Notice of Intended Marriage NOIM to another Celebrant.
The Couple should ask the Original Celebrant to transfer the file or the NOIM to the new Authorised Celebrant to transfer marriage documents (specifically the NOIM) between Celebrants in Australia.
The Original Celebrant should formally transfer the file to the New Authorised Celebrant, often via state BDM online systems or by registered mail or physically, in person.
The New Celebrant must re-verify Identity Documents, Sight the supporting documents (Birth Certificates, Passports, etc.), and accept the NOIM before the ceremony. The original one-month waiting period still applies from the first lodgement date.

The new celebrant should make a note on the NOIM document regarding the transfer, such as "transferred from X to Y, received by Y on [date]". If the original NOIM cannot be transferred or is invalid, a new NOIM may need to be signed.
