Overview
The Australian Consulate-General in Phuket is one of only two Australian diplomatic missions in Thailand, reflecting the enormous volume of Australian visitors to southern Thailand. Phuket, Krabi, Koh Samui, and the surrounding Andaman and Gulf islands draw hundreds of thousands of Australian tourists annually — making this one of Australia's busiest consular posts in Southeast Asia for emergency assistance, particularly during the high season (November-March). The consulate provides passport services, notarial and documentary services, and consular emergency support.Read moreRead less
