The country will reopen its borders, closed since May 2020, to fully vaccinated skilled and student visa holders from 1 December.
Eligibility extends to working holidaymakers, humanitarian workers and provisional family visa holders.
It means these groups will no longer have to apply for a travel exemption to head to Australia.
However, they must be fully vaccinated, hold a valid, qualifying visa, be able to provide proof of vaccination status, and present evidence of a negative PCR test for Covid-19 taken up to 72 hours prior to travel.
