Planning to visit Australia as a genuine visitor? Apply for visitor visa subclass 600 Australia. One basic requirement is that you must be here only as a tourist for visiting purposes or depending on the stream you’re applying for. There are six streams under this visa, and these are:
For applicants outside Australia who want to be in the country for 3 to 12 months to go on a cruise for pleasure or visit family and friends.
The best option for applicants who have an expiring visa and they want to extend their stay here, provided it’s only for temporary visit purposes and not for business or healthcare treatment.
You must have a sponsoring family member who is an Australian citizen/permanent resident and who may also have to pay a security bond for your temporary visit.
This temporary visa lets you conduct business visitor activities such as making business enquiries or be engaged in contract negotiations, but not actually work and sell products or services.
Exclusive for eligible People’s Republic of China (PRC) citizens touring Australia. This tour must be organised by an authorised travel agent who will also apply for this visa stream on your behalf.
Eligible PRC citizens (except SARs) can be a tourist and cruise, visit family and friends, and conduct business activities on this visa with a three-month validity for each visit and 10 years in total.

Check out these basic qualifying requirements to get a visitors visa subclass 600 in Australia, namely:
These are the main requirements for the subclass 600 visitor visa, which is a temporary visa. You cannot include family members in your application nor extend your stay. You must lodge a new application for a suitable visa once your current temporary visa expires.
You must supply sufficient supporting documents that prove you don’t intend to stay in Australia longer than you should. These genuine visitor documents are:
You must convince the assessing officers that you can shoulder your financial expenses for the entirety of your visiting period. These include recent payslips, tax records, itemised bank statements, credit card statements, and term deposits, among other things.
If your application is due to an invitation from an Australian relative or friend, you must provide a letter stating their relationship to you, why you were invited and how long they want you to stay, whether you will stay with them and, if they will pay for your expenses, they, too, must show evidence of adequate funds.
Another way to prove your being a genuine temporary visitor is providing evidence that you intend to return to your home country. It could be a letter from your boss saying you’ve pledged to return to your work, school records that show you’re presently studying, evidence that you have a family back home who needs you, or proof of property ownership or other assets.
Aside from these, it’s imperative that you submit identification documents, a police clearance, and health certificate if requested.
