The shocking and unprecedented events in Christchurch on 15 March continue to reverberate globally.
The terrorist attack, motivated by extreme right-wing ideology, has drawn strong condemnation internationally.
Demonstrations and protests against Australia may occur.
Australians travelling overseas should continue to use common sense, be vigilant and exercise caution. They should look out for and report suspicious behaviour, as they would in Australia. They should monitor the media and other sources for information about possible new safety or security threats, and follow the advice of local authorities. They should avoid demonstrations and protests, as they can turn violent.
Australia keeps its travel advisories under constant review, and will continue to assess whether the risks for Australians travelling have changed.
The safety and security of Australians in Australia and overseas is our highest priority.
