Immigration News - Global Mobility, Australia Australia | Australian Immi App open to applicants from 34 countries Share this article LinkedIn Facebook X (Twitter) December 2, 2025 The Department of Home Affairs has expanded access to the Australian Immi App to eligible visa applicants from 34 countries, effective Nov. 24, 2025. Key Points: The Australian Immi App enables visa applicants to submit their facial biometrics and passport information via their smartphone, eliminating the need for in-person visits to biometric collection centers and reducing costs associated with visa applications. Applicants must have previously provided their biometrics to the department and hold a valid passport to be eligible to use the app. A final expansion to all remaining countries in Australia’s biometric collection program is scheduled for early 2026.
