Health examinations for Australian visas
Many visas to Australia need you to have a health examination. If you need a health examination for your visa, you may be able to use the My Health Declarations (MHD) service in ImmiAccount. This can help you get it done sooner. You may receive a faster visa decision if you have your health examination early.
You and your family members must undertake a health examination if you are applying for permanent or provisional visas to Australia.
If you are applying for a temporary visa, the health requirements vary. These depend on factors such as:
- which visa you’re applying for
- what you plan to do in Australia
- the country you’re applying from.
