Where to apply in Australia
No resident mission in Australia: handled by the Embassy of Cameroon in Tokyo, Japan (Minami Twin House A & B, 3-27-16 Nozawa, Setagaya-ku), which covers residents of Australia and New Zealand. Services are by post and online portals, with in-person steps in Tokyo.
Contact details for every office are on the page of the embassy and consulates of Cameroon.
