Travelling to and from NSW
There are new international travel rules for people arriving in Australia – including NSW – from China, Macau and Hong Kong.
Read more on COVID-19 information for international arrivals.
If you develop symptoms, it is recommended you get tested for COVID-19 and stay at home or in your accommodation until your symptoms have resolved, even if you receive a negative result.
NSW Health recommends that you register your result with Service NSW if you test positive using a rapid antigen test.
Before you travel, find out if you're at higher risk of severe illness and seek advice from a doctor about antivirals.
