Australia's biosecurity and border controls

The Australian government controls the movement of people and goods across our border. This is to protect Australia's environment, economy, health and wellbeing, and security.

To avoid issues, penalties and fines, and to reduce the risk of experiencing delays when you travel to Australia, consider:

• any COVID-19 requirements you may have to meet
• the declarations you need to complete
• the documents you need to pass through Australian immigration
• any biosecurity restrictions and requirements
• any import requirements.
