Most UAE residents apply for the Visitor visa (Subclass 600) online through an ImmiAccount. You complete the application, upload your passport, UAE residency, finances and travel plans, pay the government application charge in AUD, and give biometrics if requested. Every traveller, including children, needs a separate application. Tourist-stream decisions usually take a few weeks, but timing varies, so apply early. The visa does not allow work and cannot be extended in Australia. Gulliver Holidays prepares and reviews your file — the decision is made by the Department of Home Affairs.
The Visitor visa is the main route for tourism, family visits and short business trips to Australia — and the usual choice for UAE residents on most passports.
The Australia Visitor visa lets you enter for tourism, to visit family or friends, or for short business activities. Stay length is set in your visa grant — commonly 3, 6 or 12 months — and you cannot work.
Australia is a favourite from the UAE for its beaches, cities, wildlife and wine regions. The key to approval is showing you are a genuine visitor: a clear purpose, enough funds, stable ties to the UAE and a firm intention to leave Australia before your visa ends.
Gulliver Holidays helps you build a decision-ready file the first time, since incomplete or inconsistent applications are a common cause of delays and refusals. See all our visa services →
