Travel Advice
The travel advisory for Pakistan has been reviewed and reissued on 1 February 2012.
Australians in Pakistan should be aware of recent kidnappings involving foreign nationals and our revised assessment that a very high threat of kidnapping now exists across Pakistan. Australians in Pakistan should also be aware that we now very strongly advise you to ensure you have personal security measures in place, seek professional security advice and take out kidnapping insurance, regardless of your location in Pakistan.
Further information is in the travel advice for Pakistan and our travel bulletin "Kidnap threat worldwide" available at www.smartraveller.gov.au.
