Hello all

Visitor visa (subclass 600)

This visa is for people travelling to Australia:

• As a tourist
• For business visitor activities
• To see family
• On tour with a registered travel agent from the People’s Republic of China

The visa allows you to visit Australia for a period as determined by the Minister.

Electronic Travel Authority visa (subclass 601)

This visa is for people travelling to Australia:

• As a tourist
• For business visitor activities

In most cases, this visa allows you to visit Australia on multiple occasions within 12 months from the date of the grant of the visa or the life of the visa holder’s passport (whichever is shorter) for three months at a time.

You must be outside Australia when the Electronic Travel Authority visa is granted or, if you apply for it while you are in immigration clearance, then you must be in immigration clearance at the time it is granted.

See > Electronic Travel Authority visa (subclass 601)

eVisitor (subclass 651)

This is a free visa for certain people travelling to Australia:

• As a tourist
• For business visitor activities

This visa allows you to visit Australia for three months at a time and travel to and enter Australia on multiple occasions within 12 months from the date the visa is granted.

See > eVisitor (subclass 651)

Saffas have to apply for the Visa 600.

 

The other e-visas are for specific countries and South Africa is not one of them.
