Why do british subjects need a visa to enter australia?

Question

am going to australia but have found out i need a visa?

Answer 1

cause the aussies, have  got it right,

A british passport shoud be declared useless.

Answer 2

Because it's their country and that's what they decided.  Deal with it.  They require a visa of *everyone* except kiwis.  Just go online and get the visa and stop fullfilling the stereotype of the whinging Pom.  ;)

Answer 3

a visa is automatically issued when u purchase a ticket. its a 30 day tourist visa and its free. i think there may be an aussie entry charge though. we issue visas as every country does to keep and eye on who go's in and out of oz and for how long.

Answer 4

coz those bloomin aussies have their heads up their botties

Answer 5

what is a British subject? Aren't you a citizen?

Answer 6

I think its to do with the amount of people they accept from different countries each year. If you intend on living & working there then you will need a trade. If they need people from your trade you will probably be accepted. The best way would be to go there as a holiday, get a job while there then you will not need to get a visa.

Answer 7

each country decides on the visas requirements for other countries,to enter , ,it is their rights ........just as it is for the UK to enter it .........
