If you are planning on travelling to Australia
for more than 3 months you will need to apply for the subclass 676
visa. The main reason for your visit should be for recreation or
to visit family and/or friends. It can also be used for other short-term,
non work purposes, including study for less than 3 months.
The subclass 676 visa will allow you a stay in Australia of up to three (3) or six (6) or 12 months. The visa will be valid on your passport for
twelve months, allowing you the twelve months from the date of issue
to enter into the country to start the duration of your visa.
The subclass 676 visa will allow you to:
Stay in Australia of up to three (3) or six (6) or 12 months.
