Information for Australian travellers to China

Smartraveller advice is for Australian to not travel overseas at this time. China will not allow most foreigners to enter China. Direct flights between Australia and China have been significantly reduced. If despite our advice you travel to China, you'll be subject to 14 days mandatory quarantine. Quarantine requirements vary between region and may change at short notice. If you are already in China and wish to return to Australia, we recommend you do so as soon as possible by commercial means. If you stay in China, follow the advice of local authorities, monitor your health and take care to protect yourself from exposure to COVID-19.

Authorities have detained foreigners because they are 'endangering national security'. Australians may also be at risk of arbitrary detention. If you or someone you know is in China and needs assistance, contact +61 2 6261 3305 from overseas or 1300 555 135 from within Australia.
