Australia's strict visa policy has not hindered the country's tourism industry. Australia's top attractions include the iconic Sydney Opera House, the stunning Great Barrier Reef and the pristine Whitehaven Beach, each of which contributes to Australia's enduring appeal as one of the world's most desirable destinations.
Meanwhile, according to the latest Henley Passport Index, Australians looking to travel overseas without a visa now have more destination options than ever.
Specifically, Australian passport holders can travel to 189 destinations worldwide without a visa or can apply for a visa on arrival, ranking in the top 10 most powerful passports in the world. Of these, 146 countries/territories completely exempt visas for Australian citizens.
These destinations include 50 countries in Europe; 20 destinations in the Americas and the Caribbean; 17 destinations in Africa; 14 destinations in Asia... Most recently, China has also added Australia to the visa-free list.
