How to Get a Tourist Visa to Australia for Thais
Having a holiday destination to Australia? A Thai national who wishes to visit Australia needs to secure a tourist visa before arriving there.
What Kind of Visa Should You Apply?
There are several types of tourist visa for Australia. A visitor visa to Australia can be classified into the following subclasses:
Tourist Visa (subclass 676)
If your purpose of visit to Australia is recreational, you can check the requirements for this type of visa. Once granted, the length of stay in Australia would be 3 months, 6 months or even one year.
Sponsored Family Visitor Visa (subclass 679)
To categorize this kind of visa, this type would require a formal sponsorship from an Australian citizen or a permanent resident. The visa holder would be allowed to visit a family or relatives in Australia for a period of 12 months.

Hi, as I have stated on the title, this is specifically addressed to Thai national. Each country has its own requirements for specific national who wish to enter their country.
I'm curious as to your addressing this specifically for Thais. Aren't they the same for everyone. If not, why the discrepancy. I should have asked in my other post so I apologize for double posting.
Interesting qualifications if compared to current USA "restrictions" which are virtually non-existent. And not to worry any persons found to be here illegally are released until a future date for hearing. So any dedicated terrorist, for example, would have little problem vanishing into thin air or safe house or wherever terrorists and subversives go. And it doesn't matter what your health status is nor your history of work or type of job you would be qualified to do. There is current a new you-tube video direct from the U.S. government advising any and all how to get food stamps and not to be embarrassed, the speaker in the video has one too and it's REALLY cool. So come on down and get yours.
Yes, I'm being sarcastic. As in my case, it IS possible to speak sarcastically while also delivering the truth.
