Documents created by dialogues are offered to both churches for further consideration. They do not have the status of official teaching until they are formally approved by the relevant church authority responsible for Doctrine. There are currently active dialogues between the UCA and four other churches:
- Anglican Church of Australia (ACA)
- Roman Catholic Church (RC)
- Lutheran Church of Australia (LCA)
- The Salvation Army (TSA)

The National Dialogue between the Lutheran Church of Australia and the Uniting Church in Australia has met from 2004-08 in order to produce a report on the topic Summary and Outcome of Discussion on Interpretation of Scripture.
