You must not travel, including abroad, unless you have a legally permitted reason to do so. It is illegal to travel abroad for holidays and other leisure purposes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here is the FCO advice for travelling once Covid-19 restrictions are lifted:<\/p>\n<p>When traveling to Australia you should take the same precautions as you would when traveling anywhere in the UK, but also bear in mind the extremes of the environment, particularly if you&#8217;re visiting remote areas or going swimming in open water.<\/p>\n<p>Crime levels are about the same as in the UK, so you should remain vigilant and avoid carrying all your valuables in the same bag, and never leave any bags unattended, particularly in vehicles, cafes, pubs or clubs. It&#8217;s also worth knowing that theft from safety deposit boxes is common in the cheaper hotels and hostels.<\/p>\n<p>Never leave drinks unattended in bars or clubs as spiking is a risk.<\/p>\n<p>You should also be aware of online lettings scams, particularly if you&#8217;re a business owner with interests down under, whereby prospective tenants are asked to transfer a deposit to an overseas bank account in return for keys to a rental property in Australia.<\/p>\n<p>Another thing to be aware of is the wildlife in Australia, as it&#8217;s home to all sorts of dangerous creatures, including crocodiles, jellyfish and sharks, venomous insects, spiders and snakes are found in many parts of the country.<\/p>\n<p>Remember that Australians drive on the same side of the road as the UK.<\/p>\n<p>The emergency services number in Australia is 000.<\/p>\n<h2>Any more information on Australia?<a href=\"https:\/\/www.taxback.com\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4469 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conferencecall.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/TB_Facts-About-Australia_Infographic-5-614x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"614\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/a><\/h2>\n<p>Australia flag image by <a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/users\/jorono-1966666\/?utm_source=link-attribution&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=image&amp;utm_content=2690850\">jorono<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/?utm_source=link-attribution&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=image&amp;utm_content=2690850\">Pixabay<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1777 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conferencecall.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/conference-call-banner.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"118\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019ve business associates out in Australia, business trips aren&#8217;t currently an option as as Covid-19 restrictions mean we can\u2019t travel out of the UK.
