Apply for an Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) to travel to Australia.

An Australian Government mobile app that you can use to lodge an Australian ETA application. The ETA allows eligible passport holders to travel to Australia for short-term stays for tourism or business visitor purposes.

It is recommended that you apply well ahead of when you want to travel. It is suggested that you do not make travel arrangements until your ETA has been granted. See the ETA website to find out more and check your eligibility to apply:

Please note, Australian citizens are ineligible to apply for an ETA. For more information, see:
