Australia (PR) visiting United Kingdom — pick your passport

Permanent residency in Australia lets you re-enter Australia, but it does not by itself grant visa-free entry to other countries. The visa rules for your trip to United Kingdom are determined by the passport you hold — not your PR status. Pick your country of citizenship below to see accurate requirements.

Notes for permanent residents

You travel on the passport of your country of citizenship — your Australia (PR) card is not a travel document for entry to United Kingdom.
Carry your PR card on the return trip — it's required to re-enter Australia.
Some destinations recognize PR status in narrow cases (e.g., transit, visa-on-arrival eligibility). Check the destination's official source for confirmation.
