Electronic Travel Authority (ETA)

The ETA for Australian travel visas is the most advanced and streamlined travel authorisation system in the world. The ETA replaces visa labels or stamps and removes the need for application forms. The Australian ETA is an electronically stored authority for travel to Australia for short-term tourist visits or business entry.

Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) and the ETA Visitor Visa

An ETA (Visitor) Visa allows a person to stay in Australia for up to 3 months on each arrival within 12 months from the date of the grant.

• The ETA differs from traditional visas in that there are no application forms to fill in and no visa label or stamp in the passport.
• The ETA is available to passport holders from Australian Government specified countries and regions. To apply for an ETA (Visitor), you must be outside Australia and hold a passport issued by an ETA-eligible country or region.
• You must apply for your ETA with the passport and passport number you will be traveling to Australia with; the visa is linked to this number. If your passport is lost/stolen or replaced before you travel to Australia, you will be required to re-apply for an ETA visa.
