BREAKING NEWS---A pause on Quarantine-Free Travel (QFT) from Victoria starts at 1:59am (NZT) Friday 16 July.
The pause will run for at least four days beginning tomorrow at 1.59am.
Victoria will enter a snap lockdown at 11:59pm tonight (AEST) following a growing number of cases and locations of interest. Anyone who has been in Victoria after 1:59am (NZT) tonight cannot travel to New Zealand from any state in Australia until further notice.
We acknowledge the frustration and inconvenience that comes with any interruption to Trans Tasman travel, but given the ongoing level of uncertainty around transmission in Melbourne, this is the right action to take.
Apart from New South Wales, QFT from all other Australian states and territories remains open, subject to evidence of negative pre-departure tests within 72 hours of departure, and a health declaration confirming the traveller has not been at a location of interest and the Nau Mai Rā travel declaration for contact tracing.
