Note: Travellers vaccinated outside Australia must present certificates that meet the following criteria:
- Issued by a national or state/provincial-level authority or an accredited vaccination provider
- Written in English or accompanied by a certified translation
- Containing at a minimum:
– name as it appears in the traveller’s passport- either date of birth or passport number- the vaccine brand name, and- the date of each dose or the date on which a full course of immunisation was completed. Paper and digital certificates are equally acceptable.
Step 3 (Mandatory) Submit Australian Travel Declaration (ATD) online. You must submit your Australian Travel Declaration online with a copy of your vaccination certificate before your flight.

Visa conditions are the rules of your visa that are set by the Australian Government. It is important that you understand your visa conditions, as the Department of Home Affairs (Home Affairs) may cancel your visa if you breach them.
Visitor visa (Subclass 600)
With this visa you can:
- visit family or friends
- be here as a tourist, for a cruise, or for purposes other than business or medical treatment
However, not many people understand their obligations and their visa conditions. It leads to visa cancellation right after they arrive in Australia
In this video, this man could not prove that he is a genuine visitor. Thus, his visa was cancelled on the spot.
If you hold a visitor visa, you must
- intend to come to Australia to visit only
- have enough money for your stay in Australia
- not work in Australia
- you must be outside Australia when you apply and when we decide your visa
If your visa is cancelled
Cancellation of your visa might also bar you from making further visa applications or prevent you from being granted certain visas to travel to, enter or stay in Australia .
Refused or cancelled visa due to concerns about your character
If you have had a visa refused or cancelled on character grounds since you last arrived in Australia the only visa you can apply for is a Protection visa.
If you are removed from Australia on character grounds, you may have difficulty satisfying the character test when applying for another visa to re-enter Australia.

SUPPORTING THE SAFE RETURN OF INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS TO NSW
The NSW International Student Arrivals Pilot Plan to return international students to NSW has received support from the Australian Government and NSW Government.
The Pilot Plan will allow a limited number of 250 international students studying with NSW education providers to return each fortnight from early December 2021.
For now – under the Pilot initially – international students who return to Australia must be fully vaccinated with a Therapeutic Good Administration (TGA) recognised COVID-19 vaccination before landing in Sydney.
International students will quarantine in purpose-built student accommodation in Sydney and adhere to the same health and quarantine requirements set by the Australian Government for returning Australians.
The NSW International Student Arrivals Pilot Plan will not displace any returning Australians and be fully funded by industry, with in-kind support provided by the NSW Government around logistics and the coordination of their return.
Why is the NSW International Student Arrivals Pilot Plan so important?
1. Returning international students to NSW
Two in five (38 per cent) of Australia’s international students choose to study in our State.
At 13 September 2021, there were more than 57,289 enrolled students outside of Australia who are unable to travel to New South Wales to study.
Our State has missed the many positive contributions international students make to the communities where they study, live and work.
For continuing students already in New South Wales, universities and other education providers have adapted to support students to have a full and rewarding co-curricular experience.
2. A return led by NSW Government
Education providers and members of the international education community are working with the NSW Government to ensure that international students who remain abroad can get back to our State as soon as possible.
This collective effort – the NSW International Student Arrivals Pilot Plan – will be funded by industry, with the governance and operational support of NSW Government and its agencies and the endorsement of the Australian Government.
NSW will prioritise the return of continuing higher education students from universities and large independent providers, with other sectors and providers to follow as soon as possible. A successful, scaled return will lead to an expanded pilot plan to welcome more students from a range of institutions returning to NSW.
Returning students will be approached by their respective institutions based on a set of criteria and their individual situations.
3. Australians still get home first
International students will quarantine in purpose-built student accommodation in Sydney and adhere to the same health and quarantine requirements set by the Australian Government for returning Australians.
This industry-funded quarantine model also means that international students will not be prioritised ahead of Australians returning or wanting to return home.
NSW will continue to support as many returning Australian citizens and residents as possible, based on the State’s weekly cap on arrivals and the capacity of our health and quarantine systems.
International student arrivals will be separate to the weekly caps, and all costs associated with travel and quarantine will be borne by the education providers and returning students.
4. Australia’s safety is an asset
This pathway has been designed with the safety of the NSW community and the students themselves top of mind. At the same time, we can give students and their families confidence that their experience in NSW will be positive and life changing.
In the uncertainty of these times, Australia’s focus on minimising the risks of COVID-19 means international students can be more confident of their experience here than just about anywhere else in the world.
With a demonstrated and ongoing commitment to community safety and liveability, NSW will continue to offer international students the opportunity to learn in one of the world’s best countries for students, acquire internationally recognised qualifications and launch their career in Australia or anywhere in the world. This is why 16 per cent of international students choose to call Australia home after they graduate.
We support the return of international students to New South Wales. It is the right thing to do.
5. Supporting the NSW economy
The economic impact of international students not being onshore continues to worsen – and it will take years to rebuild if we cannot support the safe return of international students.
New South Wales has already lost more than one third of its international student community between the start of the pandemic and September 2021. Some have gone to other countries with fewer border restrictions, and some have chosen to stay in their home country.
Before the pandemic, international education was estimated to directly support more than 95,000 full-time equivalent jobs across the State’s economy, in education, hospitality, tourism and other services.
Losing international students in 2021 means $5 billion lost to the NSW economy, which could be as much as $11 billion in total by the end of 2022.
The return of international students in 2021 will help support a sustainable education sector and our economy for the future
