Australia Visitor Visa services

Tourist or Business Visitor — Start With the Right Purpose

We focus on two kinds of Visitor visa (subclass 600) applications: tourism/family visits and eligible short business visits. The correct preparation depends on what you will actually do in Australia.

Tourist stream

Australia Tourist Visa

For genuine temporary visits such as holidays, sightseeing, cruises and visits to family or friends. The application should explain the trip, funding and the applicant’s circumstances in India.

Typical situations

  • Holiday in Sydney, Melbourne, Gold Coast or other destinations
  • Visiting children, parents, relatives or friends
  • Couple or family tourism
  • Short private trips and sightseeing

Evidence often considered

Itinerary, accommodation, finances, employment or business background, approved leave, invitation and relationship evidence where relevant.

Business Visitor stream

Australia Business Visitor Visa

For eligible short business visitor activities such as meetings, certain conferences or trade events, business enquiries and contract-related discussions. It is not a work visa.

Typical situations

  • Client, supplier or distributor meetings
  • Business enquiries and contract discussions
  • Eligible conferences, trade fairs or seminars
  • Official short business visits

Evidence often considered

Australian invitation or meeting confirmation, Indian employer/company letter, business itinerary, registration documents, applicant role and funding arrangements.

Business Visitor guidance
The same applicant can have different purposes

Choose the stream for the activity you will actually undertake

A business owner travelling on a family holiday is not automatically a Business Visitor. Equally, a salaried employee attending client meetings should not describe the trip as pure tourism simply because sightseeing is also planned. The main purpose and intended activities matter.

If a trip combines permitted business activity with tourism, the application still needs a clear primary purpose and accurate explanation of the itinerary.

Business visitor limits

Business Visitor does not mean permission to work in Australia

Home Affairs describes permitted business visitor activities separately from ordinary work. Activities such as working for or providing services to an Australian business, or selling goods or services directly to the public, are not ordinary Business Visitor activities. If the proposed activity goes beyond the stream, another visa may be required.

Not sure which applies?

Start with four practical questions

  • Why are you travelling to Australia?
  • Who are you visiting or meeting?
  • What will you actually do during the stay?
  • Who is paying for the trip?
Next step

Then build the document checklist around those answers

The purpose determines whether an invitation, business schedule, employment evidence, family relationship documents or other supporting evidence is relevant. The objective is a coherent application, not an unnecessarily large one.
