It’s important to have all your important documents in order for your trip.

When you go through immigration and border security at Melbourne International Airport, you will be asked to show these documents. You should keep all of your documents together in your carry-on luggage (not in your checked suitcase).

Documents you will need to bring

• Your passport (with at least six months until the expiry date) with your student visa inside it.
• Your Letter of Offer from Deakin.
• Your Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) from Deakin.
• Proof of your finances and payments e.g. receipts for fees, bank statements etc.
• Your Overseas Student Health Cover card or policy document.
• Any insurance policies (travel, health etc.)
• Original or certified copies of your academic transcripts and qualifications.
• Other identification (a certified copy of your birth certificate, driver’s licence etc.)
• Medical records and prescriptions (if applicable).
• A Confirmation of Appropriate Accommodation and Welfare (CAAW) if you're under 18.

We also recommend making a set of copies to pack in your checked suitcase, as well as leaving a set of copies with a family member or friend back home.
