They are also available, in ETA form, from travel agents and airlines in certain countries. The type of visa you will need depends on how long you wish to stay in Australia and what you want to do during your stay. An ETA is an electronic means of issuing a visa for travel to Australia for a short stay and no visa label is placed in the passport. ETAs are available from participating travel agencies when making travel arrangements, or through participating airlines, as well as at Australian visa offices overseas. Note that holders of Taiwan passports can only be processed for an ETA if resident in and applying in Taiwan.
ETAs are available for tourism and short stay business purposes.
Tourist ETAs and short validity, single entry business ETAs are free of any Australian Government charge. There is a charge for long validity multiple entry business ETAs. If you do not hold a passport approved for ETA, you will need to apply for a 'label' visa. Overseas, please contact your nearest Australian diplomatic office .
