Flight Times

The average flight time from the UK to Melbourne is around 23 hours, however this can vary slightly depending upon your departure airport and your connection(s).

- eVisitor Visa direct from the Department of Immigration & Border Protection.
- Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) via your travel agent or airline.

In some instances, you may be asked to undergo a health examination before your visa is granted and upon arrival, there is a chance you may be required to provide evidence of funds to support your visit and a return or onwards travel ticket.

Always leave plenty of time to apply for your visa and be prepared to undergo any additional checks required by the Department of Immigration & Border Protection before this is granted. In many cases, these are simply routine checks and are nothing to worry about.
