Understanding Australian Visas

What Is an Australian Visa?

An Australian Visa is a permit that allows you to travel to Australia for a predetermined period of time. Unlike most other countries, Australia does not issue visa stamps or labels on your passport. Instead, your visa privileges are recorded electronically on an online database and when you travel to Australia, the immigration officer will check the database to learn whether you have a visa.

Do I Need a Visa for Australia?

Apart from New Zealanders (who can get a visa on arrival), everyone else has to apply for a visa or authorization before they travel to Australia. For short-term visits, you can get an eVisitor, an Electronic Travel Authority (ETA), or a visitor visa, depending on your nationality:

Short-Term Visits

Visa Type	Eligible Countries
eVisitor	European Union countries, Andorra, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Norway, San Marino, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Vatican City
Electronic Travel Authority (ETA)	Brunei Darussalam, Canada, Morocco, Hong Kong (SAR PRC), Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, United States
Visitor Visa (Tourist Stream, Subclass 600)	All other countries

Long-Term Purposes

For long-term purposes such as studying or working, everyone besides New Zealanders will have to get the relevant visa.

Australia Visa Policy for New Zealanders

Citizens of New Zealand can visit, conduct business, study, work, and live in Australia without applying for a prior visa. As a New Zealander, you are eligible for the Special Category Visa (subclass 444), which you can get upon arrival.

How Can I Get an Australian Visa?

You can get an Australian visa online or through an Australian Embassy/Consulate, depending on your nationality:

You apply for the eVisitor through the Australian Department of Home Affairs’ online service.
You apply for the Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) through the official ETA portal of the Australian Department of Home Affairs.
You may apply for an Australian visa either online or in-person at an Embassy or Consulate.

Do I Need to Submit Original Documents?

You do not need to submit your original documents for an Australian visa. If you are applying online, you have to scan your documents and attach them as electronic files. If you are applying on paper, then you should submit certified copies. This means that you make a copy of your document, send it to someone who can “certify” it for you, and they must write “This is a certified true copy of the original as sighted by me”.

Not everyone can certify your documents, however. It has to be an Australian citizen or a non-Australian who works in one of the “eligible professions”, like doctors, judges, clerks of court, bank officers, police officers, etc.

When Should I Apply For a Visa?

The time when you have to apply for an Australian visa depends on the type of visa you are applying for:

If you are applying for a tourist visa, you should apply at least a month before you plan to travel, but you may think of giving it more time. Even though most applications are resolved in a few weeks, some tourist visa applications have taken more than four months.
If you are applying for an eVisitor or ETA, then you can apply about a week before your trip and you should be fine.
If you are applying for a long-term visa, such as a work visa, you will have to start the process as soon as possible since they can take months to over a year to complete.
