Visas for holidays, visiting family and short business trips.
Last reviewed on 6 October 2026 by MigrateMark.
A visitor visa lets you come to Australia for a short stay: a holiday, a family visit, or business meetings. You cannot work on a visitor visa.
Common reasons people ask for help
- A past application was refused
- They want to visit family and are unsure what evidence to give
- A family member in Australia wants to sponsor the visit
What to have ready: passport, reason for the visit, proof of funds, proof of ties to home such as work or family, and details of who you will visit.
