Apply here for your visa (ETA) on our secure site if you are planning to visit or do business in Australia. |
| |
| We offer the holders of most passports a very fast, secure, electronic means of applying for your Australian Visitor visa or Australian Business Short Stay visa.
Subject to the Australian Authorities approving your application you will receive an email giving you a copy of your Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) approval and a receipt for our fee. The ETA lasts for a period of twelve months from the date of approval. No paper documents are required by you to enter Australia.
No more sending your passport to the Embassy, no more paper to lose. The email we send you is for 'peace of mind' only, to confirm your application has been approved. The Australian Authorities do not need to see it when you arrive because they will already have your details electronically stored. This is a fast and efficient way of obtaining your 'visa'. |

| We charge a non-refundable fee of £15 to process your application. |

| An ETA is an electronically stored authority for travel to Australia which: |
- replaces the visa label or stamp in a passport.
- removes the need for application forms to be sent to the Australian Authorities.
- enables passengers to be processed more quickly on arrival in Australia.
|

- You use the ETA within twelve months, or before your passport expires (whichever is the sooner).

| ETAs are only valid if travelling on carriers approved by the Australian Authorities - before travelling, please check that your airline is approved. |
