Candidates must satisfy several requirements if they are to be considered for Nine’s controversial social experiment.

Applicants must be over the age of 25, and they must be Australian citizens or have held permanent residency for at least two years.

They must also be ‘single and genuinely looking for love’. This question is crucial, as producers urge applicants to ‘be honest’ when answering.

Filming will take place in late August, and participants must be able to commit up to four months of your life to the experiment. 

This is not a competition and there is no cash prize up for grabs. Instead, you could walk away with the most valuable prize of all… true love. 

In addition to answering a few ‘basic’ and ‘personal’ questions, applicants are also required to submit photos and videos of themselves.

According to the website, these questions will help the ‘love experts’ match couples.  

The casting call begins: ‘Married At First Sight is searching for men and women of all ages and backgrounds who are genuinely committed to finding love.’
