As a citizen of Australia, you don’t need to apply for a paper visa to visit the Schengen Zone, but that will be different by late 2022. In that year, the E.U. Commission will make official the use of a new travel requirement called ETIAS. The Luxembourg ETIAS will be mandatory for all the foreign citizens that are eligible if they want to visit this country and other countries in the Schengen Area.
That’s why we invite you to read some important considerations about this document, beginning with the fact that it’ll be available only through an online application form. For your convenience, iVisa.com has designed an easy-to-understand application form to get your ETIAS as fast as possible. With iVisa.com’s form you’ll only need a few minutes to apply, which is quite convenient if you want a time-saving process.
Before applying, you should read the information below so you can get ready for your trip without feeling under pressure and apply for the Luxembourg ETIAS for Citizens of Australia in a few minutes.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Luxembourg ETIAS?
The European Travel Information and Authorization System is the name of the recent visa waiver program that the E.U. announced. This program offers an electronic document that helps the authorities to have better control of the travelers visiting not only Luxembourg but other countries in the Schengen Area.
The European Commission will launch the Luxembourg ETIAS in order to pre-screen visa-free travelers to the Schengen Zone and identify any potential threat, with the aim of improving European border safety.
This visa-waiver program will be mandatory for all the eligible countries (60 countries) in 2022.
Do I need a Luxembourg ETIAS if I’m from Australia?
Yes, you’ll have to apply for the Luxembourg ETIAS before entering this country as it’ll be mandatory by 2022. Before that year, you won’t need to have it, you’ll be able to enter Luxembourg only with your passport.
How long can I stay in Luxembourg with an ETIAS?
The Luxembourg ETIAS is a multiple-entry travel document that will allow you to stay in Luxembourg and the Schengen Area for 90 days with each entry to the Schengen Area. This is possible as long as you don’t exceed a period of 180 days (the 90 days do not have to be consecutive).
This document is valid for 3 years from the date of approval or until your passport expires if it happens before. You don’t have to apply for another ETIAS during this time.
What documents should I get to apply for the ETIAS?
If you decide to apply with iVisa.com’s service then you’ll need only the following requirements:
- A visible copy of your passport. Ensure that it doesn’t expire once you arrive there.
- A valid email address to get the ETIAS safely.
- Payment options like credit/debit card or a Paypal account to pay for the fees.
Don’t forget that iVisa.com’s service allows you to apply for your Luxembourg ETIAS at any time and from anywhere.
What are the processing times and prices for the ETIAS?

But, we can help you a little with details about the price by saying that the average fee will be €7 and that with iVisa.com you’ll be able to choose one of the following processing options:
- Standard Processing Time: With this option, you don’t have to pay much to get your document in a few days.

I’m traveling with children, what should I do?
You don’t need to worry about kids when traveling to Luxembourg (starting in 2022) because you can also apply for them but without extra charge. In other words, you have to apply for their ETIAS as well but they won’t cost you anything. However, this information might vary, so feel free to contact our service customer to get more details about it.
Do I have to apply for this document if I’m just passing through?
It’s true that Luxembourg tends to be just a stopover destination, but that doesn’t mean that you wouldn’t need the Luxembourg ETIAS to visit it and travel to another country. If you’re just passing through Luxembourg, you’ll still need the ETIAS.
