Australian travellers are facing new pre-travel requirements for both the United States and Europe. The US Global Entry programme and the EU's ETIAS both require advance authorisation before crossing their respective borders.

UK passport costs rose again in April 2024, marking a second increase in just over a year. Travellers renewing soon should check the new fees early and leave extra time in their travel planning.
