クリスマス島：出発前に知っておきたいこと

重要ポイント

  • From mainland Australia, every passenger needs photo ID; a passport is recommended for possible overseas diversions. International arrivals follow Australian entry rules.
  • Pre-book transport: vehicles are limited and some roads close during the red-crab migration.
  • Follow island quarantine requirements even when travelling from mainland Australia.

入国とビザ

No separate passport or visa is needed for travel from the Australian mainland, but photo ID is required, including for children. For arrivals from outside Australia, carry a valid passport and the appropriate Australian visa where required.

入国審査で求められることがあるもの

  • Yachts must clear quarantine, customs and immigration before anyone disembarks.

税関

  • Check island restrictions on food, plants and animal goods before packing.
