Australia’s International Border Status

Australia’s border is currently closed to most international visitors.

In response to COVID-19 (Coronavirus), Australia’s border is temporarily closed. Currently, only Australian citizens, residents and immediate family members are permitted to travel to Australia. All travellers arriving in Australia are required to complete 14 days of quarantine in a designated facility (such as a hotel) in their port of arrival.
