What it means in practice
Our data has no fixed number of days for this entry type: the length of stay is set on the visa or at the border.
How Australia counts your stay: ETA: up to 3 months per visit. eVisitor: up to 3 months per visit within 12 months. Visitor visa: as granted.

How to avoid overstaying
- Go by your stamp or visa. The date the officer gives you is the one that counts, even if it is shorter than the maximum.
- Extend before you run out. ETA and eVisitor cannot be extended; to stay longer apply for a Visitor visa (subclass 600) in Australia before your stay ends.
- Penalties. Our data does not list the overstay penalty for Australia. Ask the immigration authority before you risk it: fines, deportation and entry bans are common elsewhere.
