Australia and the US are signatories to a Visa Waiver agreement, so the ETA is the visa you have when you are not having a visa. A Clayton's visa.

Make sure you bring the printout of the confirmation number. There's no printed/stamped visa for US citizens. Recent experience with inbound US citizens says that this works reliably, FWIW :-) Baden On Fri, 28 Jul 2006, Ted M Coopman wrote:
Hello All,
Just discovered that you need a visa to get into Australia. This may be a no-brainer for most folks outside the US, but I think that it might be a surprise to US travelers who are used to not having to have one.
Just go to: http://www.eta.immi.gov.au/ETAAus1En.html
You can apply online ($20 AU) and it registers you in their database and gives you a confirmation number.

I just did my ETA (Canada is one of the many countries elegible for ETA applications), and it was completely painless. Make sure you have a credit card and your passport handy when you do it, and it will take you less than 5 minutes. It is then on file when you board the plane/enter Aus. I printed mine out just to be safe, however. ...r On 7/30/06, Marj Kibby <Marj.Kibby@newcastle.edu.au> wrote:
