What Is a Medical Treatment Visa (Subclass 602)?

The Medical Treatment Visa (subclass 602) allows you to travel to Australia temporarily for genuine medical reasons, including:

Receiving medical treatment or consultations
Supporting a patient who requires medical care
Donating an organ to an Australian recipient
Undergoing medical assessment for a Contributory Parent Visa

This visa is ideal for people who cannot access required treatment in their home country due to limited facilities or specialised expertise. It is a temporary visa, intended purely for medical purposes and not for permanent residence.

Who Can Apply for a Medical Treatment Visa?

You may be eligible if you:

Have confirmed arrangements for medical treatment or consultation in Australia
Are accompanying or supporting a family member or friend undergoing treatment
Are an approved organ donor for a recipient in Australia
Have a medical recommendation from a qualified practitioner
Are not seeking treatment for a public health risk condition (e.g., active tuberculosis)
Can demonstrate financial capacity to pay for treatment, travel, and accommodation
