Safeguarding Migration System Integrity & Sustainability
The Australian Government has temporarily restricted Iranian Visitor visa holders from traveling to Australia to protect the integrity of its migration system. The restriction, in effect for six months, applies to individuals outside Australia with a Visitor visa linked to an Iranian passport, but allows for limited exceptions and continued visa applications.
The Australian Government has introduced a temporary restriction on Iranian Visitor visa holders. This move aims to safeguard the integrity and sustainability of Australia's migration system. The restriction applies to individuals outside Australia with a Visitor visa linked to an Iranian passport. It does not affect those already in Australia or certain family members of Australian citizens and residents. People outside Australia can still apply for new visas, which will be assessed on their merits. A limited number of individuals may be issued a Permitted Travel Certificate, allowing them to travel to Australia. This measure is in response to rapidly changing global conditions and the conflict in Iran.
