Norfolk Island is an external, offshore territory of Australia, but it is completely self-governing, and not part of New South Wales.
As a territory of the Commonwealth of Australia, it's also governed under the provisions of the Norfolk Island Act 1979(C'wealth), which established the island's own nine-member Legislative Assembly, elected by Island residents, and with power to legislate for the Island. Commonwealth laws apply to the Island only where they are expressed to do so. For example, although it is a territory of Australia, Australians cannot travel there without a passport.
The reason Australians require a valid Australian passport (or Certificate of Identity) to travel to Norfolk island is that Norfolk Island has its own Immigration Act.
Persons travelling from Norfolk Island to the mainland must also present passports for entry to Australia.
Norfolk Island also does not control Defence or Foreign Affairs.
