Australia travel guide
Planning a holiday, family visit or short business trip? Here is what you need to know about travel to Australia requirements and the eVisitor application.
The eVisitor (subclass 651) is the Australian tourist visa for eligible European passport holders. Use it for holidays, sightseeing, recreation and visiting friends or relatives, with stays of up to 3 months after each arrival.
The eVisitor works as an Australia electronic entry permit. It is a digital visa linked to your passport number, so airlines and Australian border officers can confirm your entry authorisation electronically.
The eVisitor also covers short business visits, such as attending conferences, negotiations or exploratory business meetings. It does not allow you to work for an Australian business or sell goods and services to the public.
You need an eligible passport, must be outside Australia when you apply, and must meet health and character requirements. You should also have enough money for your stay and a genuine intention to visit temporarily.
Complete the online form with your personal, passport and travel details. Each traveller, including children, needs a separate application. Most applications are processed quickly, but some take longer, so apply early.
An eVisitor is generally valid for 12 months from the grant date. You can travel to Australia as many times as you like during that period, staying up to 3 months each time.
