Indian students, skilled professionals, tourists, and families are increasingly exploring Australia as a country that is opening up new opportunities. Combined with the new system, the already existing efficient visa processing is also enhancing the ease of travel. Australia’s visa system is 100 per cent online, with no in-person interviews, biometrics, or embassy visits. Applications can be lodged up to 6 months in advance, and tourist visas are generally valid for up to 3 years. They are issued as multiple-entry visas, with a continuous period of stay limited to 3 months per visit.
