• Visa application: Please remember that if you are coming to Australia from overseas you will probably need a visa. This process is relatively straightforward for most nationalities; in most cases, it only takes 24 hours to process. If you need an official invitation, please let us know as soon as possible.

• Time zone: Perth’s time zone is Australian Western Standard Time (AWST), GMT+8. Western Australia does not have daylight saving time, therefore we are three hours behind Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra and two hours behind Brisbane. We are also in the same time zone as most Southeast Asian countries.
