About Visitor Visa Subclass 600

The Visitor Visa Subclass 600 is designed for people who wish to visit Australia for different purposes, including tourism, business, and family visits. This visa allows stays of 3, 6, or 12 months, depending on the stream and your specific circumstances.

This visa is divided into multiple streams, each tailored to different visitor needs. Choosing the right stream is essential to ensure your visa is processed efficiently and meets your travel goals. Below is a detailed breakdown of the available streams:

Tourist Stream (From and Outside Australia)

Tourist Stream is ideal if you want to visit Australia for a holiday, leisure, or to meet family and friends. Whether you’re planning a scenic road trip along the Great Ocean Road, exploring Sydney’s iconic landmarks, or simply enjoying quality time with your loved ones, the Tourist Stream offers the perfect opportunity. You can apply for this visa whether you are inside or outside Australia. If you apply from within Australia, you must hold a valid visa that does not have a ‘No Further Stay’ condition.

Business Visitor Stream

Planning a short business trip to Australia? The Business Visitor Stream is designed for individuals who need to enter Australia for business-related activities such as attending meetings, conferences, training sessions, or negotiations. It allows for short-term stays and strictly prohibits any employment or direct business engagements that require Australian labor market participation.

Approved Destination Status Stream

Approved Destination Status Stream is exclusively for citizens of China who are traveling as part of a tour group. Your travel must be arranged through an approved travel agent, ensuring that visitors comply with the specified conditions and return to China as per their travel itinerary. This stream is particularly useful for tourists from China who want a structured travel experience while exploring Australia’s major tourist attractions.

Frequent Traveller Stream

Also designed for Chinese citizens, the Frequent Traveller Stream is intended for those who travel frequently to Australia for business or personal reasons. It offers long-term validity of up to 10 years, with each stay limited to 3 months at a time. This visa is beneficial for individuals who need to make multiple trips to Australia without the need to apply for a new visa each time.
