Australia Court Reporters: What you need to know
Before you schedule a court reporter in Australia, learn more about the rules and regulations regarding U.S. depositions in Australia.
Are there any restrictions on holding a U.S. depo in Australia?
Taking U.S. depositions in Australia is permissible and in general, you can depose willing witnesses in Australia without any special formalities or involvement of foreign courts.
Can depos in Australia take place at any venue (hotel, conference room, etc.)?
Depositions in Australia can take place at the venue of your choosing, whether that be a hotel, law firm office, conference room, or videoconferencing facility.
Does a U.S. passport holder need a visa to enter Australia?
Most U.S. passport holders traveling to Australia for tourism or business purposes for less than 90 days can obtain an Electronic Travel Authority (ETA). The ETA is an electronic label-free visa and can be obtained at the ETA website for a small service fee.
