Australian Border Update

Departing Australia

From the 1st of November 2021, fully vaccinated Australian permanent residents/citizens will no longer need a travel exemption to depart Australia.

Temporary visa holder may depart and return to Australia. However, they should be advised that there is no set date on when the current border exemption requirement will be removed.

Entering Australia

All temporary visa holders (at this stage), whether vaccinated or not, will still need an exemption to enter Australia. It is expected that the arrangements will be in place until Australia reaches Phase D of the National Plan, anticipated around December. This date is unconfirmed.

Parents can now enter Australia if they hold the appropriate visa.
