Visa application charge indexed
The Subclass 600 Tourist stream base charge rose from AUD 190 to AUD 200 (offshore applications) from 1 April 2026. Home Affairs reviews visa charges annually, so always confirm the current fee before paying.
Strengthen your application.
- Apply through ImmiAccount as early as you can — most Tourist stream decisions land within 16 days, but plan for up to a month.
- Attach evidence for your whole trip (flights, accommodation, funds) in one clean upload rather than piecemeal follow-ups.
- Health examinations are only requested in specific cases — don't book one unless ImmiAccount asks for it.
Common rejection reasons.
- Genuine temporary entrant (GTE) requirement not clearly met — the case officer isn't convinced you'll leave when your visa expires.
- Insufficient funds for the length and cost of the proposed stay.
- Incomplete health or character declarations, or missing supporting evidence for dependants included on the application.
Transparent pricing.
Embassy charges are paid directly to the consulate. Visaroo's service fees cover preparation, review and submission.
