All travellers (except Australian and New Zealand citizens) must have a valid visa before arriving in Australia. Please see below information in relation to applying for a visa to attend;
- Register to attend
Once you have registered and paid you will receive an acknowledgement letter that you can use with your visa application.
- Apply for a visa at the Department of Home Affairs.
Use the Visa Finder to determine the right visa for you and follow the steps to apply for your visa.
At a minimum, you should apply for your visa six weeks before your arrival date in Australia. We encourage delegates to apply as early as possible.
