The regiment was formed in England in June 1789 as a permanent unit to relieve the New South Wales Marine Corps, who had accompanied the First Fleet to Australia.

Although drafts were sent from Britain to reinforce the regiment throughout its time in Australia, full strength was never to exceed 500.
