Hello, BarryCC.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.

I understand that you want to know if the iPhone SE model A1662 will work in Australia. I can help you with this and the answer is yes it will work. If you're looking to buy this iPhone model used or from another area make sure that it is unlocked or can be unlocked. The iPhone won't work if it's locked to a specific carrier from another region. For example, this specific model has compatible US carriers, if the iPhone is locked to T-Mobile then it won't work because T-Mobile isn't in Austrailia.
