It is always your responsibility to check if you need a Passport and/or Visa for the destination you are visiting.
Please note that some countries require that your passport is valid for six month beyond your stay. There are countries where different rules apply and you should check with ‘Smart Traveller’ to obtain relevant and up-to-date information. You may also be required to have a transit visa or a visa for countries that you travel through.
You should always check with www.smartraveller.gov.au, before travelling abroad.
