## How the count works for Irish citizens in Australia

You may stay up to 90 days. The recorded maximum applies to the current stay. Stretch does not assume that leaving creates a fresh allowance; check the evidence, entry stamp and any re-entry conditions. Stretch sets your must-exit date the day you log the entry and reminds you at 14, 7, 3 and 1 days out.

## Before you fly

Stretch publishes no independently sourced arrival card or application checklist for this route. Use the official check labelled in the sources section before travelling.
