I have a valid 600 Business Stream Visa (valid for one year with multiple entries) to travel to Australia. I travelled to Perth earlier in the year for business meetings.   With this visa am I allowed to enter Australia for leisure? I don't intend to participate in any business activities on this trip.  Thanks for your help.

I currently hold a multiple-entry business visitor (subclass 600) visa for Australia valid until January 2020, and I have traveled to Sydney multiple times before for business.   I am planning to spend my next holiday (i.e., next month) in other parts of Australia (Queensland &amp; Victoria). For this purpose, do I need to apply for a tourist visa or will my business visitor visa work?  Note: I have already looked at a similar query raised here but there was no definite answer to it.      Edit: My plan to visit Australia last year was canceled but in May 2018, I went there as a tourist on my business visa and didn't face any issue with immigration.

I'm a 24 year-old Australian traveller. I just spent a full 6 months in the US, mostly around LA. I stayed the full length of my allowed stay on a B2 tourist visa. I'd never ever been the States before!  I'm now back in Australia and wondering if I should wait another 6 months before coming to the US. I understand that is the general suggested guideline and that there are no real rules. I met a girl I really like there and would love to see her again. I'm not sure if anyone has any experience telling that to immigration on their next arrival.

There are certain countries which in order to be granted a visa you must submit your intended itinerary. My friend tells me that he thinks China is one of those countries.  What do independent travellers do? We're thinking of hitch-hiking across China without a precise plan. But if we have to submit an itinerary for the visa does then lock us in to a planned route after all?  Is it just bureaucracy where they make it look complicated but in practice it turns out to be easy?  (If it makes a difference we will have Australia or UK passports.)

I just submitted my UK Standard Visitor visa application and I inadvertently answered the question Did your travel outside your country of residence? with "NO", which should be "YES" as I have plenty of foreign travels as seen in my passport.  At this moment I can't edit my application anymore. I emailed them about this.

I am planning a trip to Asia and then back to Rio. The thing is that I am traveling on flexible dates, so I am thinking of buying a one way ticket to Hong Kong, and I was planning to do the same when I want to come back.  But what I noticed is that, for example, a one way ticket from Melbourne to Rio costs no less than $2700 dollars for the month of May.  When I do a search for a round-trip from Melbourne to Rio and back, I can find flights for $2200.  I know I will not be using that return to Melbourne, but I'd still prefer to save those $500.   Can there be any issue with buying a round-trip with a return that I will never use?

I’m a UK Citizen, and have a B1/2 Tourist Visa.  I applied for the visa as per the embassy guidelines as I was once arrested for Drunk and Disorderly. No conviction was ever made.   I attended the embassy interview and underwent a US Medical exam to prove I’m not an alcohol abuser and am in good health. This all came back positive and my visa was approved.  I have my visa now. But from what I’ve read, a Visa doesn’t guarantee entry. What are the chances of me now being denied entry by an agent at the border?

Today I was informed by VFS that my tourist visa for UAE got approved. I'm travelling to UAE on 16th December 2014 and returning on 7th Jan 2015. But when I checked the "valid until" date on the visa it states 30 December 2014.    Does this date mean I should return before December 30th? Should I get it corrected from VFS?

I applied for a Schengen multiple entry visa but I got only one single entry with a period of stay of 21 days.  I'm traveling first to Austria; then I booked a flight to Paris, France. Is that possible or should I take only trains or vehicles to travel since my visa is only a single entry? Can I fly to other Schengen countries with a single entry visa?  Should I travel to the country that issued the visa? I'm going backpacking through Europe and I don't know my longest destination or my actual destinations, to be clearer.

I'm travelling to New Zealand, and my itinerary mentions a technical stop in Australia.  Will I need to apply for an Australian transit visa for this?

My husband is in UK on a 3-month Business visa. Now I want to apply for a visa to visit him for 7-10 days.  What visa should I apply for?  I don't have a marriage certificate but do have an affidavit to prove we are married. Also the trip will be sponsored by myself. Stay will be at his accommodation currently.  Should I book tickets before the visa, will that make any difference to the decision?

I already have a 6 month valid UK business visa received prior to April 24 2015. I was supposed to travel to the UK in April, but my trip was cancelled on medical grounds.  I am now planning to visit the UK in July for tourism. Would it be fine for me to do so? Will I be allowed to enter the UK? Should I carry the original invite letter and medical certificate to prove why I didn't go the first time?

I'd like to visit London for a week to attend a conference (2-3 days) and a short 3-day non-recreational training course.  (1) What is the correct type of visa (and subtype) for activities listed above? Training may or may not be the main reason for the visit.   according to VISITORS APPENDIX 3. PERMITTED ACTIVITIES FOR ALL VISITORS (EXCEPT TRANSIT VISITORS)   As a visitor i am permitted to undertake any activities in paragraphs 3 – 27. Can i undertake any of them or just a subset that corresponds to selected visa type/subtype? If i select Visit -> Tourism -> 6 month in visa application form and tell about conference and course then    Can i undertake activities listed in 5 (a) attend meetings, conferences, seminars, interviews; under "Business – general activities" subsection? Can i undertake a short non-recreational course that does not include english language training from 25-b-(ii)? What is an accredited institution? Is there a more appropriate visa type for the visit with a plan that includes activities from paragraph 5(a) and 25-b-(ii)? Can i undertake any activities from paragraphs 4-27? (not 3 A visitor may visit friends and family and / or come to the UK for a holiday) Is "Study - Study (non point-based system) - short-term student 6 month?" a better choice for activities listed in the beginning of this message 5(a) and 25-b-(ii)?    Thanks

I transferred my visa to my new passport and it’s saying it takes 2 weeks to come, my flight is Sunday I arrive in Sydney Monday at night, I still have my old passport! If I bring that will they let me go into the country because my new one literally arrived two days ago! And the visa will be transferred in 2 weeks! Will I have to push my flight or will I be left?

I'm an Indian and my brother has been working in Sharjah around ten years. It is the first time I'm travelling abroad. He arranged me a tourist visa of 60 days validity and I can stay there up to 39 days (as stated by the visa agent). I should leave on the 40th day.   But in India my travel ticket agent said that I can stay there up to 29 days and I should leave on the 30th day.  I have added my visa image below.   Could someone please clear up the confusion for me?

I'm a British Citizen. I've spoken at business conferences in the past in the US, but haven't been paid for speaking. This is acceptable under the Visa Waiver Program.  Let's say that one day I am offered the opportunity to be paid a fee for speaking, over and above the incidental costs of travel/hotel.  A B-1 business visa doesn't cover it, it appears. So what is actually required?  On reading up about this, it's fine to be paid US$8,000 for speaking  from a VWP country; I'm a bit confused by the outcome of this story.
