Australia visa requirements

Most travelers need a visa to visit Australia, even for short stays. The visa you need depends on your nationality, purpose of travel, and length of stay.

Eligible European passport holders need the eVisitor (Subclass 651) for stays of up to three months per visit. Citizens of the US, Canada, and several other nationalities need the ETA (Subclass 601) instead, applied for directly through the Australian government's own app, which iVisa doesn't process. Travelers who aren't eligible for either, or who plan to stay longer than three months, need the Visitor Visa (Subclass 600).

Start your application with iVisa. We'll check which Australia visa you need based on your nationality and trip, then prepare, review, and submit your eVisitor or Visitor Visa application for you.

General Australia entry requirements are:

Requirements verified against official government sources

  • Passport valid for the length of your stay
  • An approved eVisitor, ETA, or Visitor Visa granted before you travel
  • Proof of onward or return travel
  • Evidence of sufficient funds to support your stay
  • A completed Incoming Passenger Card or Australia Travel Declaration on arrival
  • Declaration of any food, plant, or animal products under Australia's biosecurity rules

Unlike a traditional paper visa, it is digitally linked to your passport, removing the need for embassy visits or physical stamps.

The eVisitor (Subclass 651) is for passport holders from the European Union and several other European nations, including the UK, Switzerland, and Norway.
Permitted activities
Holidays, visiting family and friends, and business visitor activities such as attending conferences or negotiating contracts. You can also study or train for up to 3 months in total. You cannot work for an Australian business.

The eVisitor is a multiple-entry visa valid for 12 months, allowing stays of up to 3 months (90 days) on each visit.
Ports of entry
The eVisitor Visa is accepted at all international airports and seaports in Australia.

Australia visa FAQs

What travelers commonly ask about Australia visas.

Still have questions?

Our visa experts are available 24/7 on chat, email, and WhatsApp.

Do I need an eVisitor (Subclass 651), ETA (Subclass 601), or a Visitor Visa (Subclass 600)?

The eVisitor (Subclass 651) is for passport holders from the European Union and several other European nations, like the UK, Switzerland, and Norway. If you're not eligible for the eVisitor, for example if you hold a US or Canadian passport, you may qualify for the government's separate ETA app instead, or you can apply for the Visitor Visa (Subclass 600), which you can get through us for added review and support.

Do US citizens need a visa for Australia?

Yes. Most US passport holders qualify for the government's ETA. If you don't qualify, for example because you want a longer stay or your circumstances have changed, the Visitor Visa (Subclass 600) is the option you'll need. We can help guide you through applying for a Visitor Visa and review all your documents before submission.

What activities are permitted on an Australia visitor visa?

You can visit Australia to spend a holiday or visit family and friends, engage in business visitor activities (investigating business opportunities, attending conferences, or negotiating contracts), and study or train for up to 3 months in total. Note: you cannot work for or provide services to a business based in Australia, nor sell goods or services to the public.

How long can I stay in Australia with an eVisitor Visa?

The eVisitor Visa allows you to stay for up to 3 months (90 days) on each visit. Because it is a multiple-entry visa valid for 12 months, you can leave and return as many times as you like within that year, provided no single stay exceeds 3 months.

What happens if my Australia visa application is denied?

If your application is denied, the Department of Home Affairs will notify you of the reason. Usually you cannot appeal a decision for an eVisitor, but you may be able to apply for a different visa type (like the Subclass 600). iVisa also offers denial protection as an optional add-on to your application.

What are the most common reasons for denial?

The most common reasons are typos in the passport number or date of birth, or failing to meet 'genuine visitor' requirements. iVisa's expert review catches errors before submission to avoid delays.

Can I enter Australia at any port with the eVisitor Visa?

Yes, the eVisitor Visa is accepted at all international airports and seaports in Australia.

Do I need a health exam for an Australia visa?

Most eVisitor applicants do not need a medical exam. However, you may be asked to undergo one if you plan to enter a hospital environment, study to be a doctor or nurse, or if you are over 75 years of age.
