From 1 November people will no longer need an exemption to leave the Country - provided they are fully vaccinated.
Only Australians are eligible but some rules for foreigners will be relaxed soon, the government said.
" Before The End of the year, we anticipate welcoming fully vaccinated skilled workers and international students, " Home Affairs Minister Karen Andrews said in a statement.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison had, saying it was " time to give Australians their lives back".
The Changes have been met with delight by Australians and others globally. Many have spent long periods separated from loved ones.
" But I'll believe the borders have reopened when I see it and hear the stories of stranded Aussies being able to get home uninhibited, " Amy Hayes, who lives in England, told The Bbc earlier this month.
A surge in vaccinations has allowed some Australian states to end their strategy of eliminating all cases.
Mr Morrison has said Australia is " very close" to agreeing to a travel bubble with Singapore. On Tuesday the Asian city-state said it would allow fully vaccinated Australians, permanent residents and their families to enter without quarantine from 8 November.
But states such as Queensland and Western Australia have threatened to keep their borders closed until vaccine rates are Even Higher .
