Instructions warn that called up service members must carry their ration book and present it when required. Those leaving Australia for over four weeks must hand the book to a customs officer at departure. The death registrar is responsible for returning the deceased’s ration book with identity card. Multiple simultaneous purchases may affect numbering.
