Customs & Visa

Customs

At Customs, you must be able to show your passport with the correct visa labelled on it in order to enter Australia. For working holiday travellers who have applied for visa online, they will need a visa label on their passports in order to prove their eligibility to work in Australia to employers. 

If you arrive at Sydney Airport:

Your visa label can be printed before leaving the airport. After having your passport stamped, you will be directed to the visa label desk.

If you arrive at any other Australian airport:

For other Australian airports, visa labels can be printed at the nearest office of the Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs (DIMIA). For tourist visa holders who are eligible for an ETA (Electronic Travel Authorisation), there would be no visa label on your passport as your details would be electronically recorded on Australian Government systems and checked by your airline.
