All British passport holders require a visa. A tourist visa is valid for a year from date of issue and entitles you to multiple entries into Australia for no more than 90 days at any given time and we have the facility to can arrange these visa .For details on business and working visas please contact the Australian consulate. 

NEW ZEALAND

From 1 October 2019, anyone travelling by air or cruise and entering New Zealand without a visa (tourists) will need to hold an ETA before travelling to New Zealand. You will be able to apply for an ETA from July 2019. An ETA will last up to 2 years and cost NZ $9 for mobile application requests and NZ $12 for web browser requests. Holders of valid New Zealand visas (both resident and temporary) will continue to be able to enter New Zealand without an ETA. Any queries about the ETA should be directed to ETA.information@mbie.govt.nz

UNITED STATES

Most passport holders can get an Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA) through the Visa Waiver Programme, which allows travel to the US for up to 90 days. The types of journey allowed under the VWP include tourism, certain types of business visit and transit to another country. You can apply for an ESTA online at https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/ at a cost of $14. There are various restrictions attached when apllying for an ESTA for the USA and we would urge you to check these carefully before you proceed with an application.

CANADA

Visitors travelling to Canada by air are now expected to get an electronic travel authorisation (eTA) to enter Canada.

If you’re visiting Canada you’ll need an eTA to board your flight unless you’re otherwise exempted (for example, if you have a valid Canadian visa or a permanent resident card). If you have British-Canadian dual nationality you won’t be able to apply for an eTA and you’ll need to present a valid Canadian passport to board your flight to Canada.
