# List of post-nominal letters (Australia)

This is a list of post-nominal letters (letters after people's names) that have been nominated by orders from government, and letters from professional associations in Australia.

## General conventions

In general, postnominals are arranged in the following sequence:
* Honours promulgated by the Governor-General in the Commonwealth Government Gazette, e.g. Current National and former Imperial honours order of wearing,
* Honours and Appointments promulgated by a State Governor or Territory Administrator in the relevant State Government Gazette, e.g. Fellows of the Royal Society of NSW (FRSN), King's / Queen's Counsel (KC/QC), Senior Counsel (SC), and Justice of the Peace (JP),
* Degrees and diplomas, first grouped according to the corresponding Australian Qualifications Framework levels and ordered from lowest-to-highest, then in chronological order within those groups,
* Fellowships then memberships of professional and academic bodies,
* Parliamentary and military designations.
Full-stops are not usually used in postnominals.
