Warm reminder: Australia The embassy's processing time is 10-15 working days. If you go to a travel agency, the travel agency usually needs 5 working days to prepare for the operation. During this period, 60%-70% of the consulates will call to conduct a telephone survey and ask questions. If you cannot answer many questions, the other party will think that you are making fake materials. Due to the large number of tourists from my country going to Australia, the Australian embassy is in short supply of visa papers during peak tourist seasons, so it is recommended to start processing early.
