Question

Can i enter australia with minor criminal convictions on a eta visitors visa?

Answer 1

Taken from Australian Government's, Department of Immigration and Citizenship website;

"If you have had any criminal convictions in any country, you may wish to consider applying for a Tourist visa (subclass 676), rather than an ETA. If arriving on an ETA with criminal convictions, you could be refused entry into Australia."

Also on the ETA website it states:

" Important: You may not be permitted to enter Australia unless you are in good health and have no criminal convictions."

Answer 2

I had no problems in 1999 but I am not sure how much has changed since Sept 11.  I dont see any problems for you unless you look like Bin Laden.

Answer 3

yes, it shouldn't be a problem
