Yes, you need to get a A Single Status Certificate from NSW Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages if you live in New South Wales:
NSW REGISTRY OF BIRTHS, DEATHS AND MARRIAGES:
Postal Address: GPO Box 30, Sydney 2001
Physical Address of Sydney Head Office: 35 Regent Street, Chippendale, NSW 2008 Telephone: 1300655236
Then go to Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade(DFAT)office in New South Wales to apply for authentication, at last go to China consulate in Sydney to apply for authentication.
You can also apply for China visa from the consulate at the same time when you apply for authentication of Singale Status Certificate.
You must have the authentication done by the DFAT NSW State Office and Chinese Consulate-General in Sydney within 3 months after the issuance of the Single Status Certificate. The Single Status Certificate will have a validity of 6 months after being authenticated by Chinese Consulate-General.
