There's not too good a way to get around that, is there? You do need to establish your identity by some means initially. Perhaps they can let you renew at less frequent intervals (like they do with passports), but other than that, what do you propose?
The Australian Tax Office will send you an assessment notice after you've filed your tax return, confirming what they believe your income and tax for the past year to be.
When filing online, you can obtain a digital cert by supplying the serial number from last year's assessment.

True that. MTNL was surprisingly efficient though. Accepted online payment (&cheap) + least paperwork; I signed up for a 2 year certificate.
