How to apply for the Australia Visitor Visa

Colombian citizens can apply for the Australian Visitor Visa online with us through our website or the iVisa app. The application process involves filling out an online form, paying the visa fee, and submitting the required documents. You’ll also need to attend a biometrics appointment at an Australia Biometrics Collection Centre (ABCC), which we’ll schedule on your behalf.

We have found that the most challenging part of the application for Colombian applicants is answering the question, "When do you leave Australia?” This has proven difficult for more than 300 applicants.

iVisa pro tip: For the best chance of approval, clearly specify your return plans to Colombia when answering the departure question. Showing strong ties to your home country is key for approval.

Once your application is approved, your visa will be digitally linked to your passport. We also recommend printing it out before traveling to Australia, just in case.
