Australian Visas
All travellers to Australia, other than Australian and New Zealand citizens, require a visa or approval to travel and enter Australia.
The Australian Government has simplified the procedure for getting that approval by developing the Electronic Travel Authority System (ETAS). Application forms are not required for an Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) and, being electronic, there is no physical evidence of an ETA.
An ETA can only be verified electronically. Note Working Holiday Visas or Work Permits cannot be issued in this manner.
There are three types of ETA's which has been authorised to issue for you:
Visitor/Tourist
This is valid for 12 months from date of issue with multiple stays of 3 months each.
Business Long
This is valid for use for the life of the passport (up to 10 years), and for multiple stays of 3 months each.
An additional fee is payable to The Australian Immigration Authority of A$70 (approx. £29) by MasterCard or Visa credit card
when your ETA is processed. Please ensure your method of payment is by one of these cards.
Business Short
This is valid for use for up to 12 months with a single stay of 3 months. This is only for USA & Canadian citizens.
In each case, Travelmood makes an administration charge of £18 per ETA issued. If you wish us to arrange your ETA for you, please fill in below the numbers of Visas required, and click to continue.
Important: You may not be permitted to enter Australia unless you are in good health and have no criminal convictions.
In these circumstances please contact the Australian consulate.
