How to check on the status of your Australia ETA

For travelers eligible for an Australia ETA (Electronic Travel Authority), getting it is quick and easy. Instead of making a trip to the nearest embassy, you can apply for an ETA online. Here, we’ll guide you on how to check the status of your ETA application.

How to check your ETA status with iVisa

After you complete your Australia ETA application with us, we will automatically create an iVisa account for you. This account lets you track the status of your application in real time:

• Log in to your iVisa account: Once you make the payment, we’ll send you a confirmation email with a link to set up your account. Log in using the credentials you set up.

• Check your ETA status: Simply click on your application, and you’ll see all the details displayed instantly. You’ll be able to track whether it’s being processed or if it’s already been approved.

Your application will proceed smoothly, even if you don’t log in to your account regularly. However, having an account gives you peace of mind by letting you stay updated. If you have any trouble, our customer support team can help.

Your account also stores all your application information for future reference. If you plan to apply for another visa, you won’t need to re-enter your data unless your documents, like your passport, need to be updated.

How to check your ETA once in Australia

After arriving in Australia, if you need to confirm your ETA status, you can do so easily through the Australian Government’s official channels:

• Use the VEVO system: The Visa Entitlement Verification Online (VEVO) tool allows you to check your ETA’s validity and conditions. Enter your passport details and other required information to access your visa status.

• Contact the Australian Department of Home Affairs: For any concerns, you can directly reach out to the Department of Home Affairs for assistance with your ETA or other visa inquiries.

Did you know? If you get a new passport after your ETA has been issued but before you travel, your ETA won't be valid anymore. You'll have to apply for a new ETA using the details from your new passport to prevent any issues at the airport or during immigration checks.
