The following is a list of bishops of the Catholic Church in Australia. The Australian Catholic Church comprises seven archdioceses and 32 dioceses including six dioceses which cover the whole country: one each for those who belong to the Chaldean, Maronite, Melkite, Syro-Malabar and Ukrainian rites and one for those serving in the Australian Defence Forces. There is also a personal ordinariate for former Anglicans which has a similar status to a diocese. The church in Australia has five provinces: Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney.
Each diocese is divided into an ecclesiastical province. Each province has a metropolitan archdiocese led by an archbishop, and at least one suffragan diocese.
The Chaldean, Maronite, Melkite, Syro-Malabar and Ukrainian rites are governed by an eparchy, an ecclesiastical unit in Eastern Christianity, that is equivalent to a diocese. All eparchies in Australia are immediately subject to the Holy See with the exception of the Ukrainian Eparchy of Ss Peter and Paul which falls under the authority of the Archdiocese of Melbourne, as a suffragan in the ecclesiastical province of the metropolitan Archbishop of Melbourne.
