Refugee and Asylum Enquiries

People talking in a circle

I am seeking refugee protection in Australia. Can you help me with legal protection matters?

Australia for UNHCR exists purely as a fundraising office.

We do not have the expertise or facilities to provide legal advice. For specific information regarding protection within Australia please contact the UNHCR Regional Office in Canberra.

I am a donor and have changed my address/contact details, what do I do?

Please either email your new details to info@australiaforunhcr.org.au or phone our office on 1300 361 288 and we can arrange to change your details for our records.

I only want to receive communications by email. Is this possible?

Yes, please let us know by calling 1300 361 288 or send an email to info@australiaforunhcr.org.au

Should you have any further inquiries don't hesitate to get in contact with us.

Are my donations tax-deductible, and do I get a receipt?

All donations over $2 are fully tax-deductible. If you donate online you’ll receive a receipt straight away at the email address you provide.

If you’re a monthly donor, you’ll receive just one tax receipt at the end of the financial year – it’s easier for you as well as being more time and cost-efficient for us.

Thank you for your generous support for refugees.
