The Australian Trade and Investment Commission – Austrade - contributes to Australia's economic prosperity by helping Australian businesses, education institutions, tourism operators, governments and citizens as they:

-Develop international markets
-Win productive foreign direct investment
-Promote international education
-Strengthen Australia’s tourism industry
-Seek consular and passport services

We achieve this by generating market information and insight, promoting Australian capabilities, developing policy, making connections through an extensive global network of contacts, leveraging the badge of government offshore and providing quality advice and services. We aim to create value for our business sector, and do it in a way that represents a good investment for the taxpayer. And we seek to do all this in a way that meets or exceeds all appropriate standards of ethical behaviour. Our role is to advance Australia's international trade, investment, education and tourism interests by providing information, advice and services.
