Curtin Immigration Reception and Processing Centre, Immigration detention facility at RAAF Curtin, Western Australia.

The Curtin Immigration Reception and Processing Centre spans across multiple buildings near military installations in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.

After its initial closure following a riot in 2002 during the Howard government, the centre reopened in 2010 under the Rudd-Gillard administration.

The facility has housed numerous asylum seekers, including Munjed Al Muderis, who later became a notable osteointegration surgeon in Australia.

The detention center operates under Serco Asia Pacific management and processes individuals who arrive in Australia without proper documentation or valid visas.

Located at coordinates -17.605 latitude and 123.821 longitude, this facility was once described by Immigration Minister Philip Ruddock as Australia's most basic processing center.
