Organ and Tissue Donation

You can register to donate your organs and tissue through the Australian Organ Donor Register. This is the only national register for people to record their decision. It can be verified 24 hours a day, seven days a week by authorised personnel anywhere in Australia. The old NSW driver's license system is no longer valid. 

For further information you can:

• call the on 1800 777 203

Most importantly tell your family or carer of your decision.
