Consular Services
Consular Services may be available to Australian citizens while overseas. Our capacity to assist you is influenced by local laws and conditions, international rules governing consular work, and by the cooperation offered by persons and organisations outside the Australian Government.
Australians requiring advice or assistance from the consular section may make an appointment to visit the Embassy during our opening hours:
09:00 to 12:00 and
14:00 to 16:00
Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays.
In case of an emergency after hours, please contact the 24-hour Consular Emergency Centre on +61 (0) 2 6261 3305
We recommend that Australian citizens wishing to request consular assistance familiarise themselves with the advice provided on the smartraveller.gov.au website and consult the Consular Services Charter.
