Are you in a relationship with an Australian citizen or permanent resident, and planning to get married soon? If you answered ‘yes’ to these questions, you could be eligible for an Australian Prospective Marriage visa.
If granted, a Prospective Marriage visa will give you:
-
The right to enter Australia for up to
15 months - The right to work and study in Australia during your visa
- The ability to travel to and from Australia as often as you need
The Prospective Marriage visa is also one of the best pathways to a permanent Partner visa. If you want to try living in Australia before deciding to settle permanently, or are still building supporting evidence for your partner visa, a Prospective Marriage visa could be a great solution.

What is a Prospective Marriage visa?
A Prospective Marriage visa (also known as a fiancé visa, or a subclass 300 visa) is a temporary visa. It allows you to travel to Australia to marry your partner. If you decide you want to stay in Australia permanently, you can then apply for a permanent Partner visa, without having to leave the country.
If granted, a Prospective Marriage visa can give you:
- The right to stay in Australia for up to 15 months from the date of grant
- The ability to work and study in Australia during your stay
- The ability to travel to and from Australia as often as you need during this period
Who is eligible for a Prospective Marriage visa?
A Prospective Marriage visa is available to prospective spouses of Australian citizens,
permanent residents of Australia, and eligible New Zealand citizens. If you are in a genuine, committed relationship with one of the above, you may be able to apply.
You may also be able to include eligible family members in your application.
What are the requirements
for
the Prospective Marriage visa?
Alongside other requirements, applicants for the Prospective Marriage visa must:
- Have physically met your sponsor in person
- Be outside Australia when you apply
- Have appropriate sponsorship from your approved partner
- Meet age, health, and identity requirements
- Pass a ‘good character’ test
Each requirement is assessed against strict criteria set by the Australian government. Failing any test can result in the visa application being refused, and your application fee will likely not be refunded.
That’s why we recommend using the services of a Registered Migration Agent for any
Prospective Marriage visa application. At Hansen Migration, our agents are up to date on
current laws and requirements. We can help catch any mistakes in your application, reduce
