Prescribed forms, explained
What each numbered form is for, when it can be served, and how long the notice runs.
Only the forms that carry a number are here. Queensland, Western Australia and South Australia name theirs — Form 11, Form 1C, Form 5 — and those are what people go looking for. The other states use descriptive names rather than numbers, so their rules live on the state guides instead of on a page pretending a form has a name it does not. Last verified 1 August 2026.
