If you travel with underage children, you have to take into account a number of extra rules. Children must have their own travel document and may no longer be included in the parents’ passport. In addition, the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee carries out extensive checks to prevent possible international child abductions. Are you traveling abroad with a child over which you have joint custody or over which you do not have custody? You can use this form to demonstrate that you have permission from the persons who have custody of the child to travel abroad with the child. More information can be found on the website<\/a> of the national government.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Is it possible to extend an existing visa?”]No, the visa cannot be extended. If you are outside Australia, you can apply for a new eVisitor visa as often as you like with a new 12-month validity period. If your visa expires while you are in Australia, you must apply for a different type of visa in time from the local authority in Australia.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”I have a criminal record, can I obtain a visa?”]When you apply for a Australia visa while you have a criminal record, this application will be assessed individually based on your personal history, after which it is up to the authorities to decide whether or not to obtain a visa. The Working Holiday Maker visa can take\u00a0up to 34 days to process,<\/span> so please apply far in advance.<\/strong>[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Is there an urgent procedure available?”]If you urgently need an eVisitor visa, you only need to tick the option \u201curgent\u201d on the online application form. If you submit this urgent application, it will be processed immediately and you will usually be granted the eVisitor visa within an hour. There is a surcharge of \u20ac 17.50 per traveler for this procedure, please note: this is an average delivery time and no guarantee can be given here, in exceptional cases an urgent application can only be answered after 72 hours because the Australian immigration service selects your application randomly for a more extensive check.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Is it possible to apply as a group?”]Yes, it is possible to add multiple travelers on one application form who travel to Australia together. Because a lot of data only has to be entered once, this can save a lot of input.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”How do I pay for the visa?”]\n It is not mandatory to fill in the Visa Grant Number or Visa Label Number of your previous trip to Australia. However, leaving these fields empty (if ever obtained) may delay the processing of your request.<\/p>\n If you request a second or third Working Holiday Maker visa, you must<\/strong> provide a previous visa grant number, along with the information about the work you have been doing in Australia on your previous WHM visa (subclass 417 and 462). If you cannot provide this, it is not possible to obtain a WHM visa.<\/p>\n Below are images showing (in pink color) where to find them:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Visa Grant number\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Visa Label number<\/p>\n If you are unable to find the number, please contact the Australian Embassy in Berlin tel: +49 30 88 00 88 0.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Do I have to book a flight and hotel in advance?”]Voor het eVisitor visum dient u wel in het bezit te zijn van een kopie vliegticket op naam.

General information<\/h3>\n
\n
\nIf you have one of the above nationalities, apply<\/a> for your eVisitor visa Australia immediately and easily.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”How long can I stay in Australia?”]The eVisitor visa is valid for 12 months from the time it is granted. You may enter Australia several times, for a maximum of 3 consecutive months, within these 12 months. So you can be in Australia several times up to 3 months per stay.
\nHowever, it varies by visa type how long you can stay in Australia.
\nYou can read more about this on the page<\/a> about the period of validity of the visa for Australia.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”My application has been processed, but I still haven’t received an email.”]If, after paying your visa, you have not received an email from us within an hour, first check the junk mail folder (spam box). Didn\u2019t receive an email there either? Please contact us by phone or e-mail via the\u00a0contact page<\/a>.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Do I have to collect my visa somewhere?”]No, you do not have to collect your eVisitor visa, the application is processed completely electronically and sent by e-mail.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Do I have to print the e-visa?”]The eVisitor is linked to the passport with which you made the application. That means that both the airline and the Immigration Service of Australia can check if you are complying with the visa requirement by passing your passport through a passport scanner. Usually, it is not necessary to show the visa, but it is wise to have a print of the visa with you or that you can show it on your laptop \/ tablet or phone if it is rarely requested.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Do children need to have their own visa?”]\n
\nWhen filling in the application form, please make sure that you do not make a false statement and that if you have committed crimes, you are legally obliged to report them correctly.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”I have a transit in Australia. Do I need a visa?”]Transferring in Australia is possible without a visa. You may be in Australia for a maximum of 8 hours without a visa and may not leave the airport in the meantime, nor must a flight have already been booked before flying to Australia.[\/vc_toggle][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]\nApplication related questions<\/h3>\n
\nAs soon as the payment has been made, we will process your request. You will always receive, within 72 hours (also check your junk mail folder), an email stating whether your eVisitor visa for Australia has been approved or rejected.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”How far in advance can I apply for a visa?”]The Australian Immigration Service recommends applying for the visa 6 weeks\u00a0 before departure. Normally, an application does not take more than a few hours, but in the rare cases that an application is rejected, there is still enough time to make an appointment at the consulate to possibly obtain a different type of visa.
\nIf you are leaving for Australia soon, you can also use our emergency procedure.<\/p>\n
\nThe eVisa does not allow you to perform paid work in the employment of an Australian employer. You can do voluntary work there, for which you may receive no more than room and board and receive a small amount of living \/ pocket money.
\nIf you want to have a working holiday, check here<\/a> if you need a Working Holiday Visa.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Am I allowed to study in Australia?”]\nRequired documents<\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_toggle title=”Which information must be provided for the eVisitor visa?”]\n
\nBelgian document numbers may include the letter (s) \u201cO\u201d and \/ or the number \u201c0\u201d. Belgian document numbers are 8 characters long and always start with 2 letters followed by 6 numbers.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What is a visa grant number and where can I find it?”]The Visa Grant\/Label number is a unice number, which is connected to your passport. Each visa has it’s own Visa Grant number and\/or Visa Label number.<\/p>\nChanging or cancelling an existing application<\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_toggle title=”Is it possible to cancel my eVisitor application?”]Cancellation is only possible before payment is completed. As soon as we have received the payment of your eVisitor visa application, we will process it immediately and refund of your payment is no longer possible from that moment.
\nIf you made a mistake with the application, you can submit a new application. Costs for this new application are entirely at your own expense.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Can I get my money back if I don’t use the visa?”]If your application is approved, you will never receive your money back. Not even if you do not use your eVisitor visa for Australia.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”I made a mistake on my applicaiton and\/or documents. Can I correct this?”]In this case, please contact us as soon as possible to indicate what is not in order. Whether your visa application can still be corrected depends on the nature of the error and the status of your application. If we have not delivered your application to the embassy yet, it is possible to make changes. If your applicaiton is already in the hands of the embassy, there is nothing we can do. You must obtain a new visa with the proper information and cancel the existing one.[\/vc_toggle][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]\nAdditional questions<\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_toggle title=”Can I get help with my application?”]Always try to find your question on this page first, in almost all cases you will find the answer to your question about your visa application here.
