How much does an Australian ETA cost?

As for the fee, you'll be charged only USD $56.45. Rush processing time: if you are looking to get your Australia ETA sooner, you can opt for this processing time and have your document ready within 36 hours. The fee, as you may expect, is a bit higher this time. You need to pay USD $94.95.



In 2026, the Electronic Travel Authority (ETA, Subclass 601) itself has no government "visa fee," but there is a mandatory high-fidelity service fee of AUD 20 (approximately $13–$15 USD) for applications submitted through the official Australian ETA app. This fee covers the high-fidelity digital processing and biometric verification required for the 12-month multi-entry permit. For those not eligible for the ETA, the Visitor Visa (Subclass 600) carries a much higher high-fidelity cost, starting at AUD 190 for offshore applications. For 2026 travelers from eligible countries like the U.S., Canada, or the UK, the AUD 20 fee is a high-fidelity bargain, providing nearly instant authorization for tourism or short-term business visits. It is a high-fidelity requirement to use the official mobile app for the lowest price, as third-party agencies often charge significant "High-Fidelity" convenience markups that can triple the total cost.
