Planning a trip back to 🇦🇺 Australia this holiday season as a permanent resident?

You’ll need a valid travel facility on your permanent visa to allow you to re-enter 🇦🇺.

Check Visa Entitlement Verification Online (VEVO) to confirm your travel facility is still valid.

If your travel facility has expired, you must apply for and be granted a Resident Return visa (RRV) before returning to 🇦🇺.

Don't wait until check-in to apply for an RRV. Applying early helps avoid unnecessary delays to your travels.

If eligible, consider applying for Australian citizenship and make an ongoing commitment to 🇦🇺.

As an Australian citizen, you will be able to return freely using an Australian passport.
