Limits of the record
  • Maximum length of stay per individual visit is not stated on this specific service page; needs a dedicated Immigration Act / Customs source, ideally via browser (a separate claim of a general 6-week visitor limit could not be independently verified this pass).

What important funds, accommodation, invitation, insurance, onward-travel or passport evidence may be required?

The application requires 2 certified passport-size photographs, a passport valid for up to six months, a return ticket to the port of origin, a copy of the travel itinerary, proof of hotel or private accommodation, and a letter of invitation if invited by a friend or relative.

Where/how is permission obtained when required, and under what important circumstances can a stay be extended or changed?

Applicants complete the application form and submit it to the Immigration department at least two weeks before the travel date. Processing time is 5 working days. In some circumstances, a visa application can be made at the airport on entry, though such an application may be refused. The official source does not state when a stay can be extended.
