Australia Opens 10-Year Tourist Visa Program for Chinese Citizens

To make travel more convenient, Australia has introduced significant changes to its Subclass 600 Tourist Visa:

Expanded eligibility to passport holders from countries including China, Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, and Timor-Leste.

Key updates for Chinese citizens:

Applicants no longer need to be physically in China when applying.

Biometric information is required at an Australian Biometric Collection Centre (ABCC).  Since biometrics cannot be collected in China, applicants can visit ABCC offices in other countries.  For more details: Biometrics

Visa Features:

Valid for up to 10 years with multiple entries.

Maximum stay: 3 months per entry.

Over any 24-month period, total stay cannot exceed 12 months.
