Been a long while since I visited Australia ,back then don't hv phone app to apply . Seems like now they have an app . Easy to apply on our own ,or better to go through a travel agent ?Thanks in advance

It's very easy to apple via Australia ETA app

It took me couple of days to approved (albeit needs some supportive documents while finalising the application)

So you did it yourself using the app ? That's very fast ,just a coupla days !

Refer to this existing thread for some good tips to get it right the first time: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...44&hl=australia

There's a lot more scrutiny on Malaysian ETA applications after the Covid lockdowns.

I did it myself on the app, got reply for more documents almost immediately.

Then submitted documents the next day, got approved 3 days later.

Not the simplest of processes but doable.

We will also extend the 10-year visitor visa FrThe frequent traveler visa scheme allows visitors to stay for up to three months each time.

Australia previously allowed Chinese tourists to apply for the 10-year visa scheme as part of its effort to boost arrivals from the world's second largest population.

However, Australia is losing out as Chinese tourists have been flocking to Southeast Asian countries like Thailand and Malaysia thanks to visa-free policy, tourism insiders said.equent traveller stream to ASEAN states and Timor-Leste later this year.
