Expats who are travelling to Australia must have an approved travel document as evidence for their identity and nationality. The preferred travel document would be a passport but other forms of travel documents will be accepted.
The following documents should be presented to officers to clear immigration
• Valid passport or an acceptable travel document
• Valid visas or authority to enter the country
• A passenger card which is completed and signed. This includes a health and character declaration.
If an individual arrives without any of the above documents, they may be refused entry into the country or even delayed until their identity has been confirmed.
