Can I go out of the airport with an Australian transit visa?

Yes, you can leave the airport with an Australian Transit Visa (Subclass 771) under certain conditions. This visa specifically allows you to transit through Australia and explore the country for up to 72 hours (3 days) before departing for your next destination on another flight.

Here's a breakdown of the key points:

• Eligibility:You must possess a valid Australian Transit Visa.
• Time Limit:Your layovers cannot exceed 72 hours in total.
• Departure Requirement:You must have a confirmed onward flight ticket leaving Australia within the 72-hour window.
• Destination Restriction:You cannot use this visa as your main entry visa if Australia is your final destination.

Additional Considerations:

• Airports:This doesn't necessarily apply at all airports. Some airports may require you to stay within the transit area if you don't have a visa for entering Australia. Check with the Australian government or your airline for specific details regarding the airport you'll be transiting through.
• Visa Conditions:Double-check the conditions on your specific visa grant notification, as there might be special circumstances affecting yours.
