300 Visa: Prospective Marriage Visa (Subclass 300)

Planning to marry your Australian partner and start your life together in Australia?
The Subclass 300 Prospective Marriage Visa lets you enter Australia, tie the knot, and begin your journey as a couple.

Let’s walk you through what it involves and how we can help make the process simple.

What is the 300 Visa?

The Prospective Marriage Visa is a temporary visa for individuals living outside of Australia who plan to marry their Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand partner.

  • You must be outside Australia when the visa is lodged and granted

  • Once approved, your visa is typically valid for 9 to 15 months

  • During this time, you can:

    • Enter and live in Australia

    • Marry your partner

    • Apply for a partner (spouse) visa

    • Leave and re-enter Australia freely

Can You Work or Study?

Yes. Once your visa is granted, you can:

  • Work full-time in Australia

  • Study, though you may not be eligible for government assistance or subsidised fees

Can Family Members Be Included?

Yes. You can include dependent children in your visa application, either at the time you apply or before the visa is granted.

Am I Eligible for a 300 Visa?

You may be eligible for a Prospective Marriage (300) Visa if you meet the following:

  1. You’re in a genuine relationship
    Your partner must be an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen.

  2. You’ve met in person
    It’s perfectly fine if you met online—but you must have met face-to-face at least once. Online-only relationships don’t meet the visa criteria.

  3. You plan to get married
    You’ll need to show that you intend to marry, with supporting evidence such as a wedding booking or plan.

  4. You can prove your commitment
    Immigration will want to see signs of a real relationship—this includes regular communication, shared travel or finances, and social proof like photos or messages.
