Visitor Visa – Subclass 600

Visit Australia for Tourism, Family Visits or Short Business Activities

Planning a holiday, visiting family and friends, or travelling to Australia for eligible short-term business visitor activities? The Visitor visa (subclass 600) provides several visa streams for eligible visitors.

Astra Consulting Group can assist with understanding the relevant Visitor visa stream and preparing supporting documentation based on your purpose of travel and individual circumstances.

Tourist Stream

The Visitor visa (subclass 600) – Tourist stream allows eligible visitors to travel to Australia for tourism, including holidays, cruises and visiting family or friends.

Depending on the circumstances, the Department may grant a stay period of 3, 6 or 12 months. The visa is temporary, and applicants must satisfy the relevant requirements, including demonstrating that they are genuine visitors and have adequate funds for their stay and departure from Australia.

Business Visitor Stream

The Business Visitor stream is designed for eligible short-term business visitor activities. These may include general business or employment enquiries, negotiating or reviewing contracts, attending conferences or trade fairs, and certain official business activities.

This stream does not allow visitors to work for an Australian business or provide services to an Australian business.

Sponsored Family Stream

For eligible applicants visiting family in Australia, the Sponsored Family stream may provide another Visitor visa pathway. Applicants must meet the relevant requirements, and sponsorship arrangements may apply.

Genuine Visitor Requirements

Important: A Visitor visa does not guarantee entry for a particular period, and the Department determines the visa validity, stay period and applicable conditions. Applicants must comply with all visa conditions and Australian laws. Visa requirements and policies may change, and professional assistance does not guarantee visa approval.
