Everyone, no matter what country passport you hold, needs a visa for Australia. Australia is certainly one of the strictest countries in the world when it comes to Immigration. Some visas are harder to apply for than others, but remember that obtaining even a Tourist visa for Australia is not easy for many people.
An eVisitor visa is a type of Australian Tourist or Visitor visa which is only available to citizens of certain countries. All countries eligible for this visa are European, although not all countries in Europe are eligible. The eVisitor visa Australia is designed to streamline the visa application system for travellers from the Eueopean Union. The eligible countries are: Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Monaco, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Republic of San Marino, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom and Vatican City.
An eVisitor Australia visa isusually valid for visits to Australia of up to 3 months at a time, and the eVisitor visa itself is valid for 12 monthsfrom the date of grant of the visa.
A Visitor visa (Subclass 600) is a visa which is available for everyone to apply. It is your standard Tourist type visa for Australia. In contrast, and as described above, the eVisitor Subclass 651 visa is a Tourist visa option that is only available for certain country passport holders to apply. The Visitor visa being available to everyone,is harder to apply for and obtainthan the eVisitor 651 Australia. Therefore, if you have the option then you would certainly want to choose the eVisitor Subclass 651 visa over the Visitor visa Subclass 600.
No. An eVisitor visa can only be applied for either through the Australian Government or through a private visa agent. At Australian Visa Advice we offer eVisitor visa processing.
An eVisitor visa is usually granted with multiple entries, and this means that, in theory, you can travel in and out of Australia as many times as you want within the validity period of the visa. The conditions of the eVisitor visa usually require that you must leave Australia at least every 3 months, so if you want to get full use out of your 1 year visa then you will have to depart Australia at least 3 times if not more.
