Does an english born person living in australia need visa to go back and live in england

Does an english born person living in australia need visa to go back and live in england?
I was born in england and lived there for 6 years, I then moved to australia and got an Australian passport and let my British one expire. Would I need to apply for an entry visa to go back and live in england?

an english born person living in australia wanting to go back to england does not need a visa but does need to have their head tested

Visit the British consulate in Australia. A passport will cost about $300 well that is the cost in the USA in don't know the exchange rate sorry. It's a very easy process and they are very helpful.
3 :
Your passport expired, your citizenship didn't - if you a British citizen by birth & you had a British passport all you need do is renew your passport Australia & the UK both allow dual citizenship so the Australians wouldn't have asked you to renounce your British citizenship to take up Australian citzienship http://ukinaustralia.fco.gov.uk/en/help-for-british-nationals/passports/

If you are an Australian citizen you can live and work in Britain without a visa anyway if you are under 30. But since you are British born, I would just contact a British embassy in Australia and ask to apply for another British passport. You are allowed dual citizenship, so it shouldn't be a problem. Here is the UK embassy in Australia website for more info-- http://ukinaustralia.fco.gov.uk/en/ Good luck!
5 :
If you had a British passport before, you must be a British citizen so all you need to do is renew your UK passport because the fact that your passport expired hasn't changed the fact of your British citizenship. Both the UK and Australia recognise dual citizenship but you will be expected to enter and leave the UK on your British passport and you certainly won't be able to live and work there if you don't. In fact, I very much doubt if you would even be able to get a visa - very few countries will ever issue a visa to their own citizens. UK passports are easy to get in Australia: http://ukinaustralia.fco.gov.uk/en/help-for-british-nationals/passports/

Where is Best Place to Live in Australia

Where is Best Place to Live in Australia?
I'm thinking of moving to Australia. I've been looking round a couple of websites and can't decide on the perfect place to move to. I want to live by the beaches, and I also love mountain biking, so I want to live near a place I can go mountain biking. What would be the perfect place to live for me? Thanks for all your help. Whats Clifton Beach (22km north of Cairns) like? It looks gorgeous. I want to live in a place thats not heavily populated.

Cairns - Tropical North Queenlsand is the best place for you. Rainforest - mountains to bike up - heaps of places. Beaches - well there's about 53 in our area! .. and you have the great barrier reef... for more info on Cairns and mountain biking go to: Cairns Mountian Bike Club http://www.cairnsmtb.com http://www.cairnsattractions.com/a_mtb.html http://www.tropicalexperience.com.au/cairns/109/Mountain_Bicycle_Tour_Cairns http://www.cairns.aust.com/mtb/ About the Wet Tropics and World Heritage North Qld http://wettropics.gov.au Things to do and See in Cairns http://www.tropicalaustralia.com.au/things_to_do_and_see http://www.cairnsvisitorcentre.com For living on or nearby the beaches in Cairns - search on Nothern Beaches. many apartments for rent. or you can go to http://www.realestate.com.au go to rentals, search cairns area or Trinity Beach, Kewara Beach, Clifton Beach and Palm Cove - they are the main ones. You would love it here. oh and if you are between 23-49 male, there is a major drought on men here - there's 50 women to one bloke in that age group, so you would never be lonely :-)

NOT Cairns unless you love humidity, sharks, poisonous jelly fish and not being able to swim in the water! I would suggest Melbourne as it is on the coast and is within easy distance of great beaches for surfing etc. Plenty of mountain biking within an hours drive. Great lifestyle in the city also.
3 :
Although i know live in new zealand, I would have to the say the Gold coast
4 :
Sunshine Coast just north of Brisbane would be ideal place to try.
5 :
cairns cairns cairns and cairns, or kuranda a little mountain village 20k north of cairns.. or blue mountains, katoomba (west Sydney close to penrith)
6 :
Sydney for the Lifestyle â€“ itâ€™s not too expensive, thatâ€™s just something poor people say. But really, itâ€™s not as expensive as people make it out to be; itâ€™d got heaps of jobs, great pay and a 24-hour lifestyle. You are also then close to the Blue Mountains to go mountain bike riding. Or you could try Queensland, great relaxed lifestyle and weather. What ever you do DONâ€™T move to PERTH, you will want to kill your self, it is the most boring place on the planet, they donâ€™t have 7 day trading and the people are really dumb. Good Luck wherever you decided
7 :
Canberra
8 :
perth its laid back beaut beaches people are friendly right away from melbourne and sydney

What currency does he pay to me if I live in australia

What currency does he pay to me if I live in australia?
I'm selling him something, and I live in australia, he wants to know what currency to pay me, do I say AUD?

Yes, definitely say AUD. If he pays in any other currency, you will have to pay to have it changed to AUD (and it can be very expensive) and also, the AUD is rapidly strengthening against many other currencies (USD, GBP etc). If he pays in one of those, you will get fewer AUD than you are counting on if the AUD continues to strengthen. If he pays in AUD, he wears the risk.

contact your cell phone service company operator, or just walk into the store. they should be able to tell you
2 :
I suggest you try using AIM or Yahoo Messenger to send a text to a US phone number. +1 before the phone number as the recipient should do the trick. Yall can reply back and forth as if you were chatting online. It's free for you but they'll get charged normal text fees, not international text fees if you were to text phone to phone.
3 :
dont use "0" as initials. instead of "00", use "+".. now send messages. it will work for sure
