Back to EpisodesWhat happens when someone decides to stay in Australia without a visa?
Published 5 years, 4 months ago
Description
All foreign citizens must have a valid visa to stay in Australia. If someone doesn't leave the country when their visa ceases, they become an unlawful non-citizen and may be detained and deported from Australia. Staying in Australia without a visa can also have consequences for further visa applications, including a three-year exclusion period during which another Australian visa cannot be granted.
