Lebanon

We continue to advise Australians not to travel to Lebanon due to the volatile security situation and the risk it could deteriorate with little notice. Beirut airport could close without warning, and you may be unable to leave for an extended period. The Australian Government may not be able to assist you to leave in such circumstances.

Although a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hizballah was announced on 26 November 2024, Israeli military airstrikes in Beirut or other areas could happen without warning, and Israeli military ground operations in southern Lebanon could resume. Avoid known or suspected areas of military activity. The conflict could spread to other areas in Lebanon. Be prepared to shelter in place for an extended period. Make sure you have enough supplies, including food, water, medicine, radio, torches and batteries. Know where your identity documents are, including your passport.  See our advice on ‘Armed conflict’ in ‘Safety’.

Since 19 October 2023, our advice has been Do Not Travel to Lebanon. 

We continue to advise:

Do not travel to Lebanon due to the volatile security situation and the risk of the security situation deteriorating further.
