Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Tuesday announced the 10-year frequent traveler visa scheme will be extended to eligible ASEAN countries and Timor-Leste.
His announcement was made at the ASEAN-Australia Special Summit in Melbourne where he hosted the leaders of Laos, Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and Timor-Leste, according to statement from the official website of the Australian PM.
In addition, the business visitor visa will be extended from three to five years.
The frequent traveler visa scheme allows visitors to stay for up to three months each time.
Australia is losing out as Chinese tourists have been flocking to Southeast Asian countries like Thailand and Malaysia thanks to visa-free policy, tourism insiders said.
