Remember, apart from having a valid Australian passport, you must also have travel health insurance as demanded by your target country. There are a number of other countries that issue an evisa upon arrival. This means that if you have an Australian passport and want to visit any of these countries, you can submit an online application.

    A month ago, i went to Hoi An via Ho chi Minh City (Vietnam). I didn’t have a visa, so I had to pay for an express visa… $600, aud it cost each person in my family of 3 to hop on the flight, The only really annoying part about this is that if you look up Vietnam visa rules, it says you are allowed to go for leisure reasons visa-free, as an Australian. While getting my emergency visa, there was also a guy next to me doing the same thing……
