VFS (Thailand) Ltd currently has an agreement with the Australian Embassy Bangkok to provide Australian visa application services in Thailand. Applicants can lodge their visa application with VFS in person at the Australian Visa Application Centre in Bangkok or at their nearest any of the sixteen Thai Post courier centres selected by VFS across Thailand.

This arrangement for The Australian Visa Application Centre to accept visa applications does not affect the legal requirements for visa applications and the decision-making process for the grant of Australian visas remains with the Australian Embassy Bangkok.

All applications will be assessed and decided by the Visa and immigration Office at the Australian Embassy Bangkok, in accordance with Australian immigration legislation and policy. The Australian Visa Application Centre staff are not employees of the Australian government and do not have the delegation to assess or decide applications.

The Australian Visa Application Centre is managed by VFS (Thailand) Ltd and offers visa services which include collection of visa application documents with relevant visa application charges and for returning of passports to applicants. The operations and services by The Australian Visa Application Centre are within the guidelines of client service principles of The Australian Government Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC).

The Australian Visa Application Centre also provides a 24-hour facility for you to track your
on-line tracking of passports
