Australian Visa Requirements

Before you begin your trip to Australia, check the visa requirements. All travellers to Australia need a valid passport and everyone (except travellers with Australian or New Zealand passports) requires an Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) or visa to enter Australia. You must hold an ETA or visa before travelling to Australia.

ETAS & EVISITOR VISAS

ETAs and eVisitor Visas are the same as a visa, but there is no stamp or label in your passport and you don't have to visit an Australian Visa Office to submit an application. ETAs and eVisas are issued for short-stay tourists and business travellers to Australia from certain countries. All other travellers, including working holidaymakers, students and long-stay tourists must carry a visa.

To make it easy for you, you can apply for ETAs and several e-visa categories online.

WHO CAN ACCESS AN ETA?

• Travellers from Brunei, Canada, Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea and the United States.
• Short-stay tourists or business travellers, maximum three months stay, and multiple entry within 12 months.

Who can access an eVisa?

• Short-stay tourists or business travellers, maximum three month stay, and multiple entry within 12 months.
