Do I need a visa to go to Australia?

You can obtain Tourist or Visitor visas.  The information provided here is intended to be a guide, but visa requirements and fees are subject to change.  Consult the Australian authority for the most up-to-date information:  http://www.immi.gov.au/immigration.htm
