Chileans living in or visiting Australia can apply at a consulate for a new ordinary Chilean passport after loss, theft or expiry. The passport itself is produced by the Chilean civil registry and the consulate takes the application.
Where to apply in Australia
Consulate-General in Sydney (NSW, QLD, NT and Norfolk Island) and Consulate-General in Melbourne (VIC, SA, WA per its page).
Sydney: appointments via tramites.minrel.gov.cl/agenda/agendarcita, Mon-Fri 9:00-14:00. Melbourne: Mon-Fri 9:00-14:00; closed on listed Chilean holidays and Australian public holidays. The Sydney consulate also runs periodic outreach visits (e.g. Brisbane, Fairfield) with walk-in ID/passport renewal; the page seen was for 10-14 May 2025.
Contact details for every office are on the page of the embassy and consulates of Chile.
