Visa requirements
Observers who do not travel on an Australian passport MUST hold a valid VISA to enter AUSTRALIA.
From the UK
You may need supporting documentation for your visa application, so you should contact the STFC Central Office in Swindon for assistance well in advance of your travel.
It can take several weeks to obtain both a new UK passport plus Australian visa, so think ahead.
From elsewhere
Observers from other parts of the world should contact the nearest Australian Consulate for an appropriate visa.
Online
