What is the Australia Visitor Visa (subclass 600)?

The Australia Visitor Visa (subclass 600) is a versatile visa option that allows travelers to visit Australia for short-term purposes such as tourism, visiting family or friends, or participating in business activities like meetings, negotiations, or attending conferences.

Applying on your own can often feel like a guessing game, especially when unexpected requirements come up. One traveler shared their frustration after realizing that proof of health insurance was needed to process their application due to their planned longer stay. This led to delays they could have avoided with the right information upfront.

With iVisa, we make sure there are no surprises by providing a clear application manual and checklist of required documents. You’ll know exactly what’s needed before you even start, so you can avoid last-minute complications.

iVisa pro tip: Are you flying into Sydney? Do yourself a favor and grab a window seat. The view of Sydney Harbour and the Opera House from above is unbeatable, and if you’re lucky, you might even catch the purple bloom of jacaranda trees if you’re flying in around late October to early November.

iVisa travel hack: Packaged or fresh foods—even something as small as a snack bar—could mean trouble at Australia’s strict customs. To avoid a fine or having to declare items, it’s best to finish any inflight snacks before you land.
