Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will welcome the Prime Minister of the Republic of India, His Excellency Shri Narendra Modi, to Australia from 8 to 10 July 2026.

The leaders will meet in Melbourne for the Australia–India Annual Leaders’ Summit.

As the world’s fourth largest and fastest growing economy, India is a critical economic partner for Australia.

Our relationship is underpinned by our Comprehensive Strategic Partnership and supported by deep economic and cultural connections.

Our cooperation on trade, defence and security, and technology is delivering benefits for both countries.

Prime Minister Albanese last met with Prime Minister Modi in the margins of the G20 Summit in Johannesburg, in November 2025.

“I am honoured to welcome my friend Prime Minister Modi to Australia for our Annual Leaders’ Summit.

“The Australia-India relationship has never been more consequential, and our partnership fosters peace, stability and prosperity in the Indo-Pacific.

“I look forward to strengthening Australia and India’s deep partnership.”
