Good to know
- Everyone except New Zealand citizens needs a visa or travel authority to enter Australia — there is no visa-free entry.
- Eligible passport holders can apply for an Electronic Travel Authority (ETA, subclass 601), which lets you visit as often as you wish within a 12-month period and stay up to 3 months each entry. There is a service charge of AUD$20 to use the official Australian ETA app; no other charge is payable for the ETA.
- Eligible European passport holders can instead apply for the free eVisitor (subclass 651). Travellers not eligible for the ETA or eVisitor apply for a Visitor visa (subclass 600), which costs from AUD$250.
- Apply only through official channels — the Australian ETA app or ImmiAccount on the Department of Home Affairs website; beware of third-party sites that add fees.
- Your passport must be valid for travel and you must meet health and character requirements.
