2012年9月4日：澳大利亚签证申请中心即将落成

澳大利亚签证申请中心即将落成

自2012年9月10日起，澳大利亚移民及公民事务部将改变在中国提供签证服务的方式。其中两项主要调整包括：

第一、北京和上海采用澳大利亚签证申请中心；
第二、在中国境内创设若干“签证评审中心”。

由此也将引起客户递交签证申请的地点与递交方式的变化。
采用澳大利亚签证申请中心的主要内容为：两家由VFSGlobalPtyLtd运营的澳大利亚签证申请中心将于2012年9月10日在北京和上海开设。澳大利亚签证申请中心将接收签证申请，处理客户在递交签证申请前的基本问询，收取签证申请费用，并提供申请进展在线查询。采用澳大利亚签证申请中心可以使客户获得更多信息，并享受延长营业时间和简化流程所带来的更便捷的移民服务。

创设签证受理中心。从9月10日起，除了采用澳大利亚签证申请中心之外，中国境内一些签证申请的评审地点也将有所变化。将签证申请汇集到大型签证评审中心一齐进行评审可以极大地规范签证评审、签证下签的一致性，并提高DIAC在整个区域内的客户服务质量。

从2012年9月10日起，居住在北京领区和上海领区辖省市的客户若要申请澳大利亚签证，须在北京或上海的澳大利亚签证申请中心递交申请。广州辖区的客户若想亲自递交澳大利亚签证申请，须直接将其申请递交至澳大利亚驻广州领事馆签证处。由外交部或当地外事办公室为政府官员申请的签证、ADS旅行或澳大利亚公民身份申请目前的递交和评审安排将不作变化。这些签证申请须在最近的澳大利亚签证处直接递交。

Changes to Australian Visa Service Delivery in China
From 10 September 2012 the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) is changing the way immigration services will be delivered in China.

The two key changes include the:

Introduction of Australian Visa Application Centres (AVACs) in Beijing and Shanghai
Changes to visa processing locations.
As a result of these changes, the location and the way that a client lodges a visa application may also change

Introduction of AVACs
Two AVACs operated by VFS Global Pty Ltd, will be opened in Beijing and Shanghai on 10 September 2012.

The AVACs will:

accept visa applications and charges
handle basic enquiries from clients before application is lodged
return passports
provide an online application tracking facility.
The introduction of AVACs will provide more convenient access to immigration services for clients through greater access to information, extended service hours and streamlined processing.

Changes to visa processing locations
In addition to the introduction of AVACs, there will also be changes to where certain visa applications are processed in China from 10 September 2012.

Consolidating visa processing for certain visa applications into processing centres will enable a greater level of consistency in processing and decision-making and will improve the service the department provides to clients in this region.

Impact on clients
These changes mean from 10 September 2012, clients who reside in provinces within the Beijing and Shanghai catchment areas applying for most Australian visas should lodge their application at an AVAC in either Beijing or Shanghai.

Clients in the Guangzhou catchment applying in person or by post for an Australian visa should continue to lodge their application directly with the Australian Visa Office at the Australian Consulate in Guangzhou.

There will be no change to the current lodgement and processing arrangements for Government officials applying via the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) or their local Foreign Affairs Office (FAO), Australian Destination Status (ADS) travel or Australian citizenship by Descent applications which should continue to be lodged directly with the nearest Australian Visa Office.
