From sun-soaked beaches and vibrant coral reefs to ancient rainforests and rugged outback landscapes, Australia is a land where nature and culture intertwine. Explore cosmopolitan cities like Sydney and Melbourne, surf the iconic waves of the Gold Coast, or marvel at the otherworldly beauty of Uluru at sunrise. Home to unique wildlife, Aboriginal heritage, and a laid-back spirit, Australia invites travellers to slow down, wander wide, and experience life under its vast southern skies.

If you're planning on staying less than three months, you will need an Electronic Travel Authorization to enter Australia.

If staying longer than three months, like for a Working Holiday, you will need to apply for a visa.
