Visitors
can bring reasonable
quantities of prescribed
medications. All
should be clearly
labeled and identifiable.
For large quantities,
bring a doctor's
certificate to produce
to Customs if necessary.
Chemists can fill
most prescriptions
but some may need
to be re-issued
by an Australian-registered
doctor. In the event
of illness, your
hotel can call a
doctor or refer
you to one, or you
can call your country's
High Commission,
Embassy or Consulate
General for a list
of doctors. U.S.
and Canadian visitors
are not covered
by Australia's national
health insurance
scheme. It is recommended
that you travel
with adequate travel
insurance.
Vaccinations
Vaccinations
are not required
unless you have
come from or visited
a yellow fever infected
country or zone
within 6 days prior
to arrival.
No other health
certificates are
needed to enter
Australia. |
