Australia offers Ukrainian travelers the chance to experience its cities and unique attractions. If you're planning a visit, you will need an Australia Visitor Visa (subclass 600).
At iVisa, we make the visa process easy and reliable. Let’s get into the details of the application process.
Understanding the Australia Visitor Visa for Ukrainians
The Australia Visitor Visa (subclass 600) is a temporary visa that allows you to enter Australia for short-term stays of up to 90 days. Whether for a holiday, visiting family, or business, this visa allows you to make the most of your time in Australia.
Unlike the ETA or eVisitor Visa, subclass 600 is tailored for Ukrainian citizens who are not eligible for those options.

Australia Visitor Visa difficulty rating: Moderately difficult
The Australia Visitor Visa for Ukrainian citizens has a difficulty rating of 34/100. The process requires answering 43 questions and submitting four documents, including your passport and proof of financial means.
iVisa quick tip: Many applicants struggle with the "When do you arrive in Australia?" section of the form. If you’re unsure about your exact travel date, use an estimated arrival date and explain the flexibility in your plans. This reassures immigration officers that you’re prepared, even if your travel plans shift. Over 100 applicants have had difficulties with this section, so take a moment to ensure your response is clear before submitting.

The Australia Visitor Visa (subclass 600) offers multiple streams, depending on the purpose of your visit:
-
Tourist Stream: For sightseeing and leisure activities.
-
Business Visitor Stream: For attending business meetings or conferences.
-
Sponsored Family Stream: For visiting family members who are Australian citizens or permanent residents.
Australia Visitor Visa document requirements for Ukrainian citizens
You’ll need to provide the following documents for the visa:
-
Valid passport: Make sure your passport is up to date and covers your entire stay.
-
Passport-sized photos: You’ll need recent, clear photos that meet the Australian government’s visa photo specifications.
-
Proof of financial support: Bank statements showing that you have enough funds for the duration of your stay.
-
Travel itinerary: Include details of your planned accommodation and travel bookings.
You’ll also need to provide additional documents, such as proof of employment or studies, to help demonstrate your ties to Ukraine.
Here’s a tip from one of our visa experts:
“If you don't have a Ukrainian passport, the Australian government allows you to use a Certificate of Identity or an internal passport in the form of an ID card that includes your full name, date of birth, and place of birth in both Ukrainian and English. Ensure you provide clear copies of these documents with your application to confirm your identity and avoid delays in the visa process.”
