Services for Australians
What we can and cannot do
The Australian Consulate-General provides a range of consular services. These are contained in the Australian Consular Services Charter. The Charter sets out the standards of service you can expect to receive from the Consulate-General and signifies our commitment to providing effective, prompt and courteous consular services, delivered in equitably to all Australian Citizens. Our area of Consular responsibility (where we can legally provide consular services) covers both the Hong Kong SAR and Macau SAR. We cannot provide any services to Australians on the mainland of China.
Australian Citizens in Hong Kong and Macau should be aware that our ability to provide Consular functions are governed by international agreements and there are limits to the extent we can intervene on your behalf with local governments or authorities. You are subject to the laws and regulations of the Hong Kong and Macau S.A.R . Providing you with consular assistance cannot override local law, even if the local laws may appear harsh or unjust.
