澳大利亚(Australia) 前往 巴布亚新几内亚(Papua New Guinea) 签证要求

Australian passport holders need a visa for Papua New Guinea, but tourists can apply online for the Easy Visitor Permit (eVisa) before travel. It is a single-entry permit allowing a 30-day stay, costs USD 50, and is usually issued within a few days. Australians are NOT eligible for the standard 60-day visa on arrival, so the eVisa must be obtained before departure. As of May 2026, Australian ordinary passport holders cannot enter Papua New Guinea visa-free or with a standard visa on arrival for tourism. The correct channel is the Easy Visitor Permit (EVP), applied for online via the PNG Immigration and Citizenship Authority (ICA) eVisa portal at evisa.ica.gov.pg. The EVP is a single-entry permit valid for a 30-day stay, intended for holidays, sightseeing and visiting friends or relatives, and it expressly prohibits paid work. The application fee is USD 50. Passports must be valid for at least six months from the date of arrival and have at least one blank page. Online applications are typically processed within 24 hours to a few working days. Travelers should apply only through the official ICA portal, as fraudulent third-party PNG eVisa sites are common. Australians holding an APEC Business Travel Card with the PNG code can enter without a visa for business, but this does not apply to ordinary tourism.
