      Hi folks,

      is it possible to bring a Indon maid along to Australia for a vacation? What’s the paperwork like?

      TIA!

        Possible. You need to apply for a visa.


        Try this http://www.immi.gov.au/e_visa/visitors.htm

        Not sure if they allow online applications now. But when I applied for my helper in 2009, I used form 48R.
        http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms/pdf/48r.pdf

        You will need to supply the standard passport, work permit, itinerary, booking confirmations and a letter stipulating the reason for having your domestic help travel with you.

        1 trip to apply, and another trip to collect.

                      I bring mine along on most trips, especially those self drive ones. We usually travel with the whole extended family and with her along, she helps with the cooking and laundry.
