What Is a Resident Return Visa (RRV) (Subclasses 155 and 157)

The Resident Return Visa (RRV), specifically Subclass 155 and Subclass 157, allows permanent residents to re-enter Australia if they have been outside the country and their travel validity has expired or if they are outside Australia when it expires. Without this visa, you cannot return to Australia as a permanent resident. The RRV enables you to maintain your permanent residency status while traveling internationally or to those who have held permanent residency in Australia but do not meet the criteria for a new permanent visa.
