Important Information for Interstate Visitors to Victoria

The Victorian Government have established a Travel Permit System which applies to any domestic travel into Victoria from anywhere in Australia or New Zealand.

From 11:59pm on 26 February 2021, travellers will need to apply for a permit to enter Victoria from anywhere in Australia or New Zealand. Visitors can apply for a permit at the Service Victoria website.

Those living in our Victoria and NSW border communities will continue to be able to access the ‘border bubble’ – using their driver licence to prove their residential address. If travellers live in one of the border communities they do not need to apply for a permit.
