Australia eSIM

Every visitor needs something before flying. Most passports, including US, Canadian, Japanese, Korean, Singaporean and Malaysian ones, use the Australian ETA app: AUD 20 service charge, stays of up to 3 months. EU and UK citizens can apply for an eVisitor. Mainland Chinese and Indian passports need a Visitor visa (subclass 600).

Some plans add data, some add days, and some can't be topped up; each plan says which. Top up from the eSIM in My eSIMs. There's nothing new to install.

Yes. The listed price is the final price.
