Visa requirements for visiting Amsterdam

If you’re an Australian citizen planning a trip to Amsterdam, The Netherlands, you should first ensure your passport will be valid for at least six months from the date you plan to return and that you have at least one blank page. The Netherlands is part of the Schengen Area, so Schengen visa rules apply. For Australian citizens, this means you won’t need to arrange a visa if your trip will be shorter than 90 days; for stays longer than 90 days, a visa is mandatory for Australian nationals. In both cases, you will need ETIAS authorisation, this will be valid for five years once obtained. Also, keep in mind that Schengen visa rules can change at short notice, so contact your closest embassy or consulate if you’re uncertain of anything pertaining to your visa or passport requirements.
