Document requirements
| Document | Status | Scope | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| India to Australia Visitor visa subclass 600 document checklist: Use the actual Visitor 600 Tourist holiday route | required | visa application | Example from this named route only. A genuine personally funded hotel holiday. This is the Tourist stream applied for outside Australia, not an assumed ETA/eVisitor entitlement, business conference or Medical Treatment 602 route. |
| India to Australia Visitor visa subclass 600 document checklist: Clear colour passport identity pages | required | visa application | Example from this named route only. Provide current passport pages showing photograph, personal details, issue and expiry dates. Use a valid passport and matching application names; no universal six-month-after-return buffer or paper-photo size is inferred from these instructions. |
| India to Australia Visitor visa subclass 600 document checklist: National identity or name-change evidence where applicable | conditional | visa application | Example from this named route only. Include a national identity card if held/required and genuine name-change documents if relevant. The examples do not require every adult to supply an unrelated marriage or birth certificate. |
| India to Australia Visitor visa subclass 600 document checklist: English translation with translator details for non-English evidence | conditional | visa application | Example from this named route only. A translation prepared in India must identify the translator by full name, address, telephone number, qualifications and language experience, in English. Submit it with the source document. Outside-Australia accreditation is not mandatory; do not infer a separate certified translation, oath, notarisation or apostille. Certification of document copies is a different issue and may be requested separately. |
| India to Australia Visitor visa subclass 600 document checklist: Clear colour scans/photos; multipage documents in one file | required | visa application | Example from this named route only. Scan or photograph both English and non-English documents clearly in colour. Save a multipage document as one file and attach it only once even if it serves several purposes. Follow the personalised ImmiAccount attachment fields and validators; no universal file-size limit is established here. |
| India to Australia Visitor visa subclass 600 document checklist: Provide biometrics only through the channel in the actual request | conditional | visa application | Example from this named route only. Home Affairs will tell you if biometrics are needed. India is an Immi App location, but use that route only with an AUI-prefixed Visa Lodgement Number and a valid passport under the instructions. A different VLN requires ABCC attendance. Follow the individual deadline and any further request; no universal fourteen-day deadline is invented. |
| India to Australia Visitor visa subclass 600 document checklist: Follow actual health and character requirements and requests | conditional | visa application | Example from this named route only. Complete any required health examinations under Home Affairs instructions; eligible upfront examinations or a later request are separate from a treating-doctor letter. Provide military service/discharge records where applicable to the visitor stream, and a police certificate if requested. This is not an automatic apostille/PCC package for every adult. |
| India to Australia Visitor visa subclass 600 document checklist: Use the correct offshore ImmiAccount application and await the grant | required | visa application | Example from this named route only. Apply through ImmiAccount with the correct stream and all requested attachments. Stay outside Australia for this offshore application and decision. Do not treat a receipt as approval. Use the actual grant letter/VEVO for permitted stay, entries and conditions; category descriptions are not a guaranteed grant or processing time. |
| India to Australia Visitor visa subclass 600 document checklist: Evidence of funds for the real visit and departure | required | visa application | Example from this named route only. Show access to enough funds. Choose suitable evidence: Home Affairs examples include itemised personal bank statements over three months, payslips, tax records, audited accounts, term deposits or credit-card statements. This self-funded scope uses genuine personal bank evidence; the alternatives are not a mandatory combined bundle and no fixed balance is invented. |
| India to Australia Visitor visa subclass 600 document checklist: Genuine itinerary and reasons to return to India | required | visa application | Example from this named route only. Explain the purpose, accommodation, planned activities and return. As an employed visitor, include genuine leave/return-to-work evidence. Family, study, property or assets are other examples where relevant, not documents every applicant must cumulatively hold. A prepaid return ticket or hotel letter notarisation is not universally required by these instructions. |
| India to Australia Visitor visa subclass 600 document checklist: Check actual fee, insurance conditions and additional requests | required | visa application | Example from this named route only. Check the current Visitor 600 charge in the official estimator/ImmiAccount and any additional health/biometric costs. Arrange suitable cover; follow any health-insurance condition on the grant. No fixed policy limit or universal notarised financial guarantee is established by this guide. |
| India to Australia: self-funded friend visit under Visitor 600: Use the actual Visitor 600 Tourist friend visit route | required | visa application | Example from this named route only. A genuine temporary visit to a lawfully resident nonrelative friend, with a personally funded hotel. Use the Tourist stream outside Australia, not the Sponsored Family stream or partner/dependant residence. An adult nonrelative-friend visit does not create a kinship-certificate requirement. |
