What is the Medical Treatment Visa (Subclass 602)?

The Medical Treatment Visa (subclass 602) allows individuals to visit Australia for medical purposes, including treatment, consultation or organ donation. This visa may also be granted to people supporting someone else undergoing medical treatment or a patient or an organ donor who has applied for or currently holds this visa.

Applicants must prove they are seeking medical treatment in Australia and provide evidence from an Australian medical provider outlining the treatment needed. This is a temporary visa and, therefore, the length of stay is determined on a case-by-case basis with consideration given to the treatment plan. In addition, the genuine temporary entrant requirement is essential for this visa.

This visa does not allow the holder to work, except under limited circumstances, where one can apply for jobs on the grounds of financial hardship. However, this visa does allow the opportunity to study for a period of up to three months (or longer if you meet the exemption criteria). The applicant must also meet health and character requirements and provide evidence of sufficient funds to cover treatment and living expenses during their stay.

Eligibility Requirements for the Medical Treatment Visa

The Medical Treatment Visa (subclass 602) allows individuals to come to Australia for medical treatment or consultations. To be eligible for this visa, applicants must meet specific criteria:

  1. Purpose: The primary reason for the visit must be to receive medical treatment, including consultations, surgery, or organ donation.
  2. No public health threat: You must not have a medical condition that could be a threat to public health or endanger the Australian community.
  3. Must not hold this visa: If you are in Australia, your current visa or your last substantive visa must not have been a Temporary Work (International Relations) visa (subclass 403) that was granted in the Domestic Worker stream.
  4. Sufficient Funds: Applicants must show they have adequate funds to cover their medical costs, as well as their living expenses and any expenses for dependents accompanying them. In most circumstances, you must pre-arrange payment of all the costs associated with your medical treatment and provide written proof from a public or private hospital to demonstrate that it will not cost the Australian government money.
  5. Health Requirement: While the visa is for medical treatment, applicants must meet certain health standards, depending on the nature of the treatment. In some cases, health examinations may be a prerequisite.
  6. Character requirement: When you travel to Australia, you are expected to demonstrate good character in line with the country’s commitment to maintaining community well-being. This involves meeting and upholding the character requirements.
  7. Repaid debts: You must have repaid all outstanding debts to the Australian government.
  8. Genuine Intention: Applicants must demonstrate they genuinely intend to stay in Australia temporarily for medical purposes.

Benefits of a Medical Treatment Visa

For those requiring medical care unavailable in their home country, or who are unfit to depart Australia on health grounds, a medical treatment visa offers a pathway for temporary residency and access to medical care, subject to meeting specific eligibility and public interest criteria. The visa has several benefits, including:

  • Access to Medical Treatment or Consultation: This visa allows eligible applicants to access approved medical treatment in Australia.
  • Short-Term Stay: It allows applicants to stay in Australia for the duration of their medical treatment.
  • Accompanying Support: An eligible support person, for example, a family member, can apply for this visa to accompany the patient or organ donor for practical assistance and accompaniment, where eligible.
  • Study Rights: Visa holders may be allowed to study for up to three months while receiving treatment.
  • Travel Flexibility: Depending on your situation, you may be granted single entry or multiple entries to Australia, allowing you to travel in and out of Australia during the treatment period.

Medical treatment visa costs

The cost of medical treatment visas in Australia varies depending on whether you apply from within Australia or outside Australia. If you apply outside Australia, there is no fee for the application. Similarly, if you represent a foreign government, the visa is free.

However, if you apply in Australia, the application currently costs $370. You must also take into account potential additional costs, including health checks, police certificates, biometric data collection and any expenses for an organ donor that may be required. You will need a valid passport to enter and leave Australia. Applicants may also need to pay for their medical treatment prior to visiting Australia, purchase health insurance and ensure they have adequate means to cover their living expenses during their stay. Applicants should account for additional costs, as the visa only covers the entry permit.

It is important to consider if you reside in an eligible country that has a reciprocal healthcare agreement with Australia, as you may be eligible for reciprocal Medicare whilst you are in Australia. This can be checked via Services Australia.

To confirm fees and charges before applying, visit the Department of Home Affairs website.
