Visas and Passports

General Information

V Australia Ground Crew require you to show all relevant travel documents at check-in. This will include a passport and may include a visa and proof of onward travel.

Guests are solely responsible for obtaining all travel documents and for complying with all laws, regulations, orders and travel requirements of countries to be flown from, into or over. The airline may refuse to carry you if we reasonably believe you will be refused entry to the destination country. For American citizens, more information can be found at the US Department of State website.

Passports

All Guests require a passport for international travel, regardless of your destination. The passport must be valid for the duration of your trip. If you have not already applied for your passport, arrange this well in advance of your departure date. Always check your passport is valid, as some countries require passports to be valid for a certain length of time beyond your visit.

Visas

A visa is permission for a non-citizen to travel to a particular country. Visas are obtained from the issuing authority in your country, usually an embassy. Australian Visas can also be obtained online at Australia's Department of Immigration website.  Details of requirements can be obtained from the Consulate of the destination country.

Onward and Return Travel

Most countries require visitors to have proof of onward or return travel arrangements. Your itinerary may serve this purpose, and all visitors must carry proof of onward/return travel arrangements with them. Failure to do so may result in refusal of carriage and loss of fare. We recommend printing your itinerary prior to arriving for check-in. Guests should also ensure they have the right of re-entry to their return destination.

Arrival Documents

Arrival documents will be distributed by Cabin Crew during your flight. These should be completed and presented with your passport to the authorities at your destination.
