  • What should one do if one loses their passport or documents in Australia?

    Report the loss immediately to the nearest police station and contact your embassy or consulate. They will guide you through the process of obtaining an emergency passport or replacement documents. Keep copies of your passport and other important documents stored separately from the originals.

    Australia Day (26 January) is a national public holiday celebrating the nation's history. Christmas and New Year are celebrated widely, often with outdoor events and barbecues.
