Travel


Visas
Canadian citizens traveling to Australia for our wedding must obtain an Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) prior to their trip. The ETA is a simple online visa that allows stays of up to three months. To obtain an ETA, Canadian citizens can apply through the Australian Department of Home Affairs website or a travel agent. It is important to verify the latest visa requirements before traveling to Australia for a wedding.
