​​Department Terms and Conditions for the use of the Australia Travel Declaration

About these Terms and Conditions

1. This is an agreement between the user (“you”) of the specific part of the Qantas App referred to as the Australia Travel Declaration (“the ATD”) and the Commonwealth of Australia represented by the Department of Home Affairs (“the Department") governing your use of the ATD.
2. Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully as you are not required to use the ATD in any way. If you do not submit an ATD, you may be required to submit a paper Incoming Passenger Card on arrival instead.
3. By choosing to use the ATD, you acknowledge that you agree to be bound by all of the Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions, you must not use the ATD and you may ask for a paper Incoming Passenger Card.
4. You acknowledge that these Terms and Conditions may be subject to updates, amendments or additions that the Department will specify on its website, from time to time, and the changes may be incorporated into these Terms and Conditions by reference. If any new changes are incorporated during your use of the ATD and you had relied on the version of the Terms and Conditions prior to the new changes, you may continue to rely on the previous version.
5. These Terms and Conditions do not affect any agreements you may have in connection with Qantas Airways Limited or the Qantas App.

Your use of the ATD

6. You agree to use the ATD only for the purposes explained in the ATD.
7. You agree to not use the ATD for any other purposes, including:
   1. Any commercial purposes;
   2. Any illegal or unauthorised use of the ATD; and

8. Your access to the ATD depends on telecommunications infrastructure, internet service providers, the mobile device's technical specifications, the Qantas App, and other external factors unrelated to the Department in any way. While the Department will take reasonable steps to ensure stability of the ATD and the information shown on the ATD accurately reflects what is required by the Department at the time, the Department does not warrant the ATD will be available at all times or the information shown in the ATD is always relevant to the ATD’s purpose.
9. While the Department will take all reasonable steps to ensure that the information provided by the ATD is correct and current at the time of publication, the Department accepts no responsibility for the completeness or accuracy of any of the information contained in or accessed through the ATD and makes no representations about its suitability for any particular purpose. Users should make their own judgements about those matters.

15. The Department excludes all liability for loss or damage arising from the use of, or reliance on, the information contained in or accessed through the parts of the Qantas App that are outside of the ATD.
16. These Terms and Conditions constitute your entire agreement with the Department in connection with the ATD. These Terms and Conditions do not affect any agreement you have in connection with the operation of the Apple App Store, Google Play Store and/or Qantas Airways Limited in relation to the Qantas App.
17. You will be asked to declare and acknowledge various matters before you submit an ATD.
