Civitai is no longer accessible to users in Australia due to the Age-Restricted Material Codes under the Online Safety Act.
This is due to Australia's Age-Restricted Material Codes , registered under the Online Safety Act and enforced by the eSafety Commissioner. These codes require platforms that host user-generated content — including AI-generated imagery — to implement age verification measures such as facial age estimation, digital identity wallets, or photo identification checks before allowing access to age-restricted material. Simple self-declaration of age is no longer considered sufficient. Non-compliance carries civil penalties of up to AUD $49.5 million per breach.
