What's an eVisitor Pass for Anyway?
An eVisitor pass is part of the Visa Policy of Australia. More to the point, as far as the Land Down
Under goes, if foreigners wish to enter the country/island continent, then he must deal with the
requirements set by the nation in order to obtain a visa, with the eVisitor pass being related to this
scheme somehow. It also includes having a permit to remain, travel to, and even enter Australia.
Visa rules and regulations are set by the Migration Act of 1958 and the Migration Regulations. The
Department of Immigration and Border Protection is the one that administers these rules.
The visa regime of Australia is a universal one. Meaning every non-Australian citizen must have a
visa, either one granted automatically by law or as a result of applying for one. The continent also
offers a visa visitor exemption to the ETA eligible countries (about nine of them) or eVisitor
countries (about thirty-six of them). Thanks to the Trans-Tasman Arrangement, New Zealanders
are also exempt from the need for visas. Special purpose visas and other visa-free travel
arrangements can also serve as an exemption to getting an actual official visa. That's at least one
reason to have an eVisitor pass; getting an exemption from needing visa-aided travel.
