The Australia eVisitor (subclass 651)
is a mandatory electronic travel authorization
required for citizens of eligible countries who wish to visit Australia for tourism, business, or
short-term family visits.
Whether you’re traveling for a holiday, business meeting, or transit, you must obtain the
Australia eVisitor before boarding your flight.
Designed to simplify border control procedures, the eVisitor replaces traditional paper forms and ensures a faster, fully digital entry process. Whether your destination is Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane, or the Great Barrier Reef, completing your eVisitor application guarantees a smooth and efficient arrival experience.
All eligible travelers must apply for the Australia eVisitor online prior to travel. Applications are typically processed within a few days, and approved visitors receive their eVisitor grant notification by email. The eVisitor authorization is electronically linked to the traveler’s passport, eliminating the need for physical documents.
The official currency of Australia is the Australian Dollar (AUD). The symbol is $ or A$ when distinguishing it from other dollar currencies. Major credit and debit cards are accepted almost everywhere, while cash may be useful for taxis, small shops, and rural areas. ATMs and currency exchange services are widely available at airports and in city centers.
The official language of Australia is English. It is spoken nationwide, though visitors will also encounter a rich mix of cultures and languages due to Australia’s diverse population.
