Arrival

You will need to have several documents ready to show when you arrive in Australia.

After leaving the plane, you will proceed to Immigration, where an officer will ask to see your completed Incoming Passenger Card (given to you on the plane), your passport and your student visa. You may also need to show your Offer of Admission letter, electronic Confirmation of Enrolment (eCOE) and evidence that you have enough money to support yourself while studying in Australia (eg, bank statements).

After proceeding through immigration, you will claim your baggage from the carousel and continue through to Australian customs. Australian customs and Quarantine restrictions are very strict: you must not bring prohibited drugs, food or plants into Australia. If you have any plants or animals or items derived from plants or animals, you must declare them on the Traveller’s Statement (given to you on the plane) which acts as your Customs declaration. Visit the Australian customs website for a list of goods that must be declared. You can receive on the spot fines for not declaring items.
