Migration (Arrangements for Electronic Travel Authority (Class UD) visa applications) Instrument (LIN 22/048) 2022, dated 5 April 2022 specifies the arrangement for making an application for an Electronic Travel Authority visa.
The instrument specifies that the approved form for making an application for an ETA visa is the Australian ETA application form available in the Australian ETA mobile app and the manner of lodgement is through this mobile app.
The app improves the accuracy of visa application data, resulting in more efficient visa processing and also preventing non-genuine travellers. The app enables ETA visa-eligible travellers to apply for a visa in a fast and convenient manner while also supporting the Government’s digital transformation strategy and the recovery of Australia’s tourism industry.
The instrument is registered on the Federal Register of Legislation on 5 April 2022 and commenced on the same day. It is currently in force.
