Domestic Flights within Australia departing from the International Terminal
If you are travelling on a domestic flight departing from an international terminal (flights QF1-QF399), and are 18 years of age or over, you will be asked to produce photographic identification that includes your full name. Your boarding pass will have a special 'D' (Domestic) sticker. You need to sign your name in the space provided and may also be required to record details of your photographic identification.
You must retain your boarding pass as you need to present it at Customs clearance points at the commencement and conclusion of your domestic trip. This is required to comply with the Migration regulations administered by the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC).
