British passport holders need an eVisitor visa (subclass 651) to enter Australia. The eVisitor is free, processed within 24 hours (most approved in minutes), and allows multiple entries for stays of up to 90 days per visit over a 12-month period. Apply online through the Australian Department of Home Affairs website. No paper visa is issued; it is linked to your passport number electronically.
Passport must be valid for the duration of the stay. You must declare any criminal convictions (including spent convictions) on the application, and certain offenses lead to automatic refusal. Bring proof of onward travel and sufficient funds. For longer stays, the Working Holiday visa (subclass 417) is available to UK nationals aged 18 to 35, costs AUD 640 (about $415), and allows 12 months with work rights.
