A Special Category Visa is a type of Australian visa granted to most New Zealand citizens on arrival in Australia. New Zealand Citizens may then reside in Australia indefinitely under the Trans-Tasman Travel Arrangement. == History == The Special Category Visa was introduced on 1 September 1994 by the ''Migration Regulations 1994''. It is known as a ''subclass 444'' visa. Prior to 1 September 1994, New Zealanders were generally treated as ''exempt non citizens'' in Australia. Most New Zealanders are eligible for a Special Category Visa (SCV) except: * those with significant health problems or criminal records * those who hold temporary or permanent Australian visas * those who arrive in Australia using another passport (e.g. if holding dual nationality). In this case an SCV can be obtained at a Department of Immigration office in Australia upon production of a valid New Zealand passport * those who arrive for specified purposes, such as diplomats and visiting forces, who are normally granted a special purpose visa. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Special Category Visa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
