Current official routeETA
Listed passports qualify for Australia's ETA
These passport holders can use the Electronic Travel Authority subclass 601 for qualifying visitor travel.
The traveller must hold a valid eligible passport and be outside Australia when applying and when the ETA is granted.
Taiwan official and diplomatic passports are excluded; British document status and other non-citizen documents have separate conditions.
Visitor stays are generally limited to three months per entry during the ETA's 12-month validity.
Criminal history can require a Visitor visa subclass 600 instead, and grant does not guarantee entry.
Only destination governments, official immigration services, official diplomatic missions, and primary legal instruments qualify as published evidence.
