Australian Permanent Resident - Visa Free Countries

Other than New Zealand, are there any other countries where Australian PR can go without visa (regardless of the passport)?

I assume even if I have been Australian PR for >7 years, I will still need visa to travel to the US (or is it case by case?)

    Tasmania.

  • None except NZ and country of your passport.

    • Still need a re-entry visa outside of being on pr for 5years.even going to your home country.

    PR has nothing to do with travel (other than NZ apparently), it's dependent on what passport you carry. So you can have a PR for Australia but if your passport country is not on the visa waiver list then you'll have to apply for a visa. What passport do you hold?

    • Indonesian

      • For the US, EU & UK (and most other countries), you'll need to apply for a visa.

      • What Neil wrote, it's the passport that counts.

        In some cases it can work in your favour, e.g. Vietnam allows visa-free entry to passport holders of ASEAN neighbours.

    • After 5 years you need a re-entry visa to get back in to Australia on a PR Visa.

      funny, but I have been thru border checks endless times. Passports are becoming a bigger laughing joke every day. Purchase your air travel on a credit card and they know all about you!
      Example Qatar: All they want is your plastic card and to look into a camera. While you do that they slug you U$20 and never care to look into your real passport!

      Dubai: 3 times they checked that we were actually married before approving entry to share a hotel room. Upon leaving to check in suddenly we were wizzed aside and
      all they noticed is that we purchased the airfare with different plastic so we had to go to a special counter to "marry" them 2 plastic cards, never had to show the passport again!

      Rules change every day, enforcement is an endless jungle. Europe supposed to want some kind of travel authority but the reality is that the 10s of thousands of land crossings have all no time to enforce them, comes a cranky officer you may be in for mega hassle but overall enforcement is generally a mega joke!
      Generally: Asia is stricter, there is of course the main reason the oldies in England are behind Brexit!
