Overview
The Medical Treatment Visa (Subclass 602) is a temporary visa for people who need to travel to Australia (or stay longer in Australia) for medical treatment, medical consultations, or to support someone receiving treatment. It may also apply in specific circumstances such as supporting an organ donor or patient, depending on the case.
Who this visa is for
This route may suit you if you:
- Need medical treatment or consultations in Australia
- Are supporting a person who holds (or has applied for) a Subclass 602 visa
- Can provide clear evidence of treatment plans and funding
What your application should show
A strong Subclass 602 application usually demonstrates:
- Medical purpose: letters from the Australian hospital/doctor outlining treatment and dates
- Funding plan: how treatment and living costs will be paid (self or sponsor)
- Accommodation and stay timeline aligned to the treatment plan
- Identity and any health/character documents requested
Typical supporting documents (examples)
- Passport and identity documents
- Medical letters (treatment details, timeframe, cost estimate where available)
- Funding proof (bank statements/sponsor evidence)
- Travel plan and accommodation details (where applicable)
- Any documents requested after lodgement (health checks, etc.)

We help organise medical evidence clearly, build a simple treatment timeline, and prepare a structured document pack that matches the purpose and funding plan.
