Travel Tips

  • Take out appropriate travel insurance to cover hospital treatment, medical evacuation and any activities, including adventure sports, in which you plan to participate.
  • Before travelling overseas register your travel and contact details online or at the local Australian embassy, high commission or consulate once you arrive, so you can be contacted in an emergency.
  • Check to see if you require visas for the country or countries you are visiting or transiting. Be aware that a visa does not guarantee entry.
  • Make copies of your passport details, insurance policy, travellers cheques, visas and credit card numbers. Carry one copy in a separate place to the originals and leave a copy with someone at home.
  • Check with health professionals for information on recommended vaccinations or other precautions and find out about overseas laws on travelling with medicines.
  • Ensure your passport has at least six months' validity from your planned date of return to Australia. Some countries will refuse entry on arrival and some airlines will not allow passengers to board flights if their passport does not meet this requirement. Before travelling, you should contact the Embassy or High Commission of each country you intend to visit to confirm the entry requirements.
  • Leave a copy of your travel itinerary with someone at home and keep in regular contact with friends and relatives while overseas.
  • Before departing Australia check whether you are regarded as a national of the country you intend to visit. Research whether holding dual nationality has any implications for your travel.
