The Australian Department of Immigration and Citizenship has announced changes to the Electronic Travel Authority System (ETAS) to take effect from 21st April 2008.
April 2008.
The changes will mean most ETA applications will be unaffected and instant processing will continue as normal. A minority of cases however, will require extra processing increasing the time required to grant ETA visas.
If issuing does not take place immediately, applicants or their agents will need to re-check the status of the ETA visa application after 12 hours, to confirm whether or not it has been granted.
For those wishing to travel to Australia with an ETA visa, sufficient time for processing should be allowed.
