By region: Most states don't allow you to change your gender marker more than once in a 12-month period. The High Court of Australia has ruled that gender reassignment surgery does not need to be comprehensive, just be socially identifiable as your preferred gender. 
• Any government department that operates at a federal level does not require surgery. 
• In NSW a gender marker change requires GRS, top surgery, or orchiectomy. 
• In Queensland gender change requires an application confirming surgery or proof of reassignment surgery. 
• In South Australia no surgery is required, only proof of psychological counseling. 
• In Tasmania no surgery is required, they may require proof of psychological counseling for persons under 18. 
• In Victoria no surgery is required, you just have to attest you are the gender you claim. 
• In Western Australia surgery is not required.
