‘Barbaric’: Returning citizens who live abroad will need permission to leave Australia
The federal government has banned Australians who normally live in other countries from returning home without needing government permission in a move branded as “barbaric.”

The federal government will now require Australians who live abroad to apply for an exemption to return to their homes in a move some expats have branded as “barbaric”.
Until now, residents of other countries who are Australian are allowed to leave the country without applying for an exemption, but are regularly questioned at the border and required to prove that they live abroad as part of the international border bans brought in at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
But on Thursday the government quietly changed the rule, effective from August 11, claiming it was a loophole.
Now, according to the government’s explanatory statement tabled in Parliament, a person will have to demonstrate to the Australian Border Force Commissioner a “compelling reason for needing to leave Australian territory”.
The amendment, which cannot be disallowed, “will reduce the pressure on Australia’s quarantine capacity, reduce the risks posed to the Australian population from COVID-19, and assist in returning vulnerable Australians back home,” the government said.
Exemptions can be granted for business travel, but the government has previously said it intends to clamp down on the number of them being granted.
The government did not issue a press release to alert the public to the change nor did Health Minister Greg Hunt, who tabled the amendment, raise it in any of his media interviews on Thursday.
Home Affairs Minister Karen Andrews said the change was introduced out of consistency.
