Tourist Visa to Australia from Nepal

The Department of Home Affairs has, at present, thirteen Tourist visa options to suit your specific requirements. Overwhelmed much?

Here’s the list of Visitor Visas (Subclass 600), that’s split into a number of streams:

Tourist stream (onshore and offshore applications)
Sponsored Family stream
Business Visitor stream (includes the APEC Business Travel Card Holders)
Approved Destination Status stream (for the citizens of the People’s Republic of China travelling to Australia as part of a tour group)
Frequent Traveller Stream (for the citizens of the People’s Republic of China)
Electronic Travel Authority (Subclass 601) for holders of eligible passports
eVisitor (Subclass 651) for holders of eligible passports
Transit visa (Subclass 771)
Work and Holiday visa (Subclass 462) for holders of eligible passports
Working Holiday (Subclass 417) for holders of eligible passports
Medical Treatment Visa (Subclass 602) – for donors of organs or a person visiting Australia for medical treatment or a person in support of another person receiving medical treatment and is a holder of the same visa.

The Common Factor

Although each Visitor visa has its own criteria, the common feature amongst all is the need to meet the genuine temporary stay requirement.

In other words, this means that the Australian Government must be convinced that your true intention is to arrive in Australia for visiting purposes only rather than to seek work, studies, or claim de facto residence. The inability to evidence this will result in a refusal of your Visitor visa application.

So, What do you need to apply for a Visitor Visa from Nepal?

A Valid passport
Application form
Copy of national identification
Meet the genuine temporary stay requirement
Proof of sufficient funds
Current employment details

So which is which?

As you can probably tell by now, the Department of Home Affairs has pretty much anticipated an appropriate visa subclass to suit almost all your tourist needs.

Tourist Visa processing times for Australia:

Visitor Visa Types	Processing Time
Tourist Stream (Apply in Australia)	4 -13 months
Tourist Stream (Apply Outside Australia)	13 days – 13 months
Sponsored Family Stream	20 days – 12 months

Each subclass has its own requirements and is derived for a specific purpose. While it’s probably too long for us to go into depth on each visa subclass here, we’re happy to help you in person.
