Processing times for an Australia Visitor Visa can vary based on the type of application, the season, and the completeness of your documents. For most Tourist Visa (Subclass 600) applications from the UAE, decisions are made within 15 to 30 calendar days. However, some applications can take longer, extending up to 40 days if additional checks are required or if documents are incomplete. Applicants are advised to apply at least a month before their planned travel to allow for sufficient processing time and to avoid delays during peak holiday seasons.
