Can I open a bank account in Sydney with a tourist visa?

It’s very difficult. There is a point system for opening a bank account in Australia. For example, holding a valid visa is 60 points, having a permanent address is 10 points, having a school admission letter or work contract is 10 points, and providing other bank accounts is 10 points and so on, until you reach 100 points. Therefore, it is difficult for people holding tourist visas to open an account in an Australian bank, unless you go to some small banks or the branches of Bank of China in Australia.

Introduction to tourist visa:

Tourist visa is a type of visa. Some countries issue tourist visas specifically for tourists, namely: "tourist

visa". The characteristic of tourist visa is that the period of stay is short, usually 30 days, the longest is 90 days, and generally cannot be extended. Those holding a tourist visa cannot work locally or engage in activities unrelated to tourism. Group tourist visa is a type of tourist visa. Its characteristic is that the visa is not printed on the passport. Tourists must enter and exit the country as a group.
