Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, owners, operators, masters and crews of international vessels may need extra information. The Australian Department of Health is leading Australia’s response to COVID-19 and they have issued a COVID-19 fact sheet for the maritime industry. This fact sheet applies to all international voyages entering Australia, except for cruise ships. We recommend that you read this fact sheet prior to entering Australia. The Department of Health has also published information about routine environmental cleaning and disinfection in the community that covers cleaning requirements for frequently touched surfaces and minimally touched surfaces. This advice is directly applicable to the maritime environment.
