Fast-tracking Visitor Visas for Chinese Nationals

The Australian Government will begin a trial of fast-tracking subclass 600 Visitor visas in the Tourist and Business streams. The cost of applying for priority processing will be $1,000 and will only initially be available to people who hold passports from the People’s Republic of China.

The fast-tracking of Australian Visitor visas is intended to boost tourism to Australia. If the trial is successful, the priority processing arrangements will apply to people who hold passports from other countries.

Chinese nationals can apply for priority processing for their Australian Visitor visa from 15 March 2016.
