Switzerland has tightened COVID-19 restrictions. If you're 16 or older and haven't been vaccinated or recovered from COVID-19, you must provide a negative test result (PCR or antigen) on arrival in country and four to seven days after arrival. A COVID certificate is needed to access indoor spaces such as restaurants, bars and museums. You must complete an entry form prior to arrival in Switzerland unless you have an exemption. We continue to advise: Do not travel to Switzerland due to the health risks from the COVID-19 pandemic and the significant disruptions to global travel .

The political and security situation could get worse suddenly. Avoid large gatherings, remain vigilant and follow the advice of local authorities. The Australian High Commission in Accra has very limited capacity to provide consular assistance in Mali. The Canadian Embassy can provide emergency consular assistance to Australians in need (see 'Local contacts'). If you're in Mali, you should consider leaving by commercial means if it's safe to do so. We continue to advise: Do not travel to Mali due to: the national state of emergency, and the high risk of terrorism and kidnapping. This includes the capital, Bamako the health risks from the COVID-19 pandemic and the significant disruptions to global travel .
