Argentina to Australia visa requirements

Yes, a visa is required. Argentine passport holders are not eligible for Australia's ETA or eVisitor, but can apply fully online for the Visitor visa (subclass 600, Tourist stream) before travel. Argentina is not on Australia's Electronic Travel Authority (ETA, subclass 601) or eVisitor (subclass 651) eligibility lists, both of which are restricted to specific passport nationalities (mostly North America, East Asia, and Europe). Therefore an Argentine ordinary passport holder traveling to Australia for tourism must obtain a visa in advance. The relevant product is the Visitor visa (subclass 600), Tourist stream, which is applied for and granted electronically (label-free) through an ImmiAccount — effectively functioning as an eVisa. The base application charge from outside Australia is AUD 200, with grants commonly allowing stays of 3, 6, or 12 months and multiple entries, valid up to 12 months from the date of grant. Australia is not part of the Schengen area, so the 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. Always verify the current requirement on the official Department of Home Affairs website before booking travel.
