Visa Information for Delegates

If you do NOT have an Australian or New Zealand passport and are not presently in Australia then you will need a visa to attend the conference. There are two alternatives depending on your country of residency and citizenship.

Option 1:
Citizens of some countries may be eligible to obtain an Electronic Travel Authority (ETA). These countries are listed at www.eta.immi.gov.au/ETAAus1En.html

The list includes countries such as:

Andorra	Germany	Luxembourg	Singapore
Austria	Greece	Malaysia	South Korea
Belgium	Hong Kong SAR	Malta	Spain
Brunei	Iceland	Monaco	Sweden

For more information on the Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs' Electronic Travel Authority system visit the Electronic Travel Authority site at www.eta.immi.gov.au.

Option 2:
Alternatively, you will need to apply for a short stay business visitor visa (subclass 456) by downloading a form from www.immi.gov.au/allforms/pdf/456.pdf
Obtaining a visa is a lengthy process so please allow plenty of time. We can assist by providing your details to the Australian Immigration Department in Australia who will liaise with their office in your country.
