The Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) is available online 24 hours a day 7 days a week, for applicants outside Australia who want to visit Australia for tourism or business purposes.
An ETA allows the holder to travel to Australia as many times as required within the validity period which is 12 months from the date of issue. The maximum length of each visit is three months.
An ETA is an electronically stored authority equivalent to a visa. There is no stamp or label placed in your passport. ETA information is accessible by airlines, travel agents and Australian border agencies. An ETA is linked to the passport number that is used in an ETA application and the holder must use the same passport to travel to Australia.
ETAs are available to passport holders from a number of countries and regions.
See:
ETA (Visitor) (Subclass 976) Eligibility
ETA (Business Entrant) (Subclass 956 and 977) Eligibility
Repeat visits
An ETA is not designed to allow repeated extended stays in Australia. If you want to spend long periods in Australia for tourism purposes you can consider applying for Tourist visa (Subclass 676) or an alternative visa that suits your purposes.
