• Travel advisories from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade we deliver a range of
consular services for Australians travelling or living overseas. We deliver our services
through Australian embassies, high commissions and consulates overseas.

• Smartraveller provides official overseas travel advice. Our travel advice aims to inform you
of the risks and how to avoid or handle difficulties overseas. Ultimately, though, it’s advice
only and the decision to travel is yours. It’s also your responsibility to take care of your safety
and wellbeing.
