Current Australian warning to travellers

Bougainville: we advise you to exercise a high degree of caution in Bougainville. You should consider your plans carefully and discuss them with the Australian High Commission in Port Moresby before travelling to Bougainville, particularly to the South. You must provide notice of your intention to visit the island to the Bougainville Provincial Administration (telephone +675 973 9798) and must contact the Administration again upon arrival.

The mountainous area in central Bougainville around the old Panguna mine is a 'No Go Zone'. We strongly advise you not to enter the 'No Go Zone'. Foreigners who have entered the 'No Go Zone' without authorisation from the PNG Government have been questioned by PNG authorities and had their passports confiscated on departure from the Zone
