National and State by State Updates for Travelling around Australia and for Travel Businesses in Australia
The 31 links below (some are PDF docs) will help explain current travel restrictions in Australia during the relaxing of COVID-19.
The aim of most policies is to reduce the possibility of a second wave of infection which may require a return to shutdown conditions or some other form of increasing restrictions.
The links are grouped into advice for the traveller and advice for tourism businesses in each state.
On a national level there is Australia’s 3 step plan for all business sectors to return to the ‘new normal’ after COVID-19 restrictions have been relaxed.
