What is a prospective marriage visa? A clear guide to the subclass 300 fiance visa: who it’s for, requirements, how it works and the path to a partner visa.
A prospective marriage visa (subclass 300) is a temporary Australian visa for someone who is engaged to an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen and intends to marry them in Australia. Often called the fiance visa, it lets you travel to Australia, marry your partner within a set period after the visa is granted, and then apply onshore for a partner visa to stay permanently. You apply from outside Australia and must be outside Australia when it’s granted. The key features are that you must genuinely intend to marry, you generally need to have met your partner in person as adults, and the visa is a stepping stone, not a permanent status on its own.
This guide is general information to help you get your bearings. Migration and citizenship rules — and especially fees and processing times — change often, so the smartest next step is a quick, honest read on your own situation.
