From Australia government for Australian citizens:
This Advice was last issued on Wednesday, 08 January 2014. It contains new information in the Summary and under Entry and exit (entry laws have been changed: foreign visitors must be able to show they are covered by travel insurance).
We continue to advise Australians to exercise a high degree of caution in Venezuela because of high levels of serious crime and ongoing political uncertainty.
