Immigration records in Queensland are vital for genealogical research, capturing the arrival of immigrants who helped shape the state’s history. From the mid-19th century, Queensland actively recruited European settlers through assisted migration programs, attracting laborers, farmers, and artisans.

Key records, including passenger lists, naturalization files, and colonial land grants, provide insights into migrants' origins, occupations, and settlement patterns. The port of Brisbane was a major entry point, with many arrivals moving inland to establish communities. Exploring these records helps researchers trace family histories, understand migration trends, and uncover the experiences of ancestors who made Queensland their home.
