The singer appeared to make light of the visa situation on social media.
Karan Aujla’s Australian tour will go ahead after the Punjabi singer’s visa was officially approved.
The news follows concerns over whether the singer would be able to enter Australia for his upcoming shows.
Aujla was originally due to begin his P-Pop Culture tour in Perth on Thursday, August 13, 2026.
However, the Perth show was postponed because of delays in approving his Australian visa.
Tour promoter Live Nation has now confirmed that the visa issue has been resolved.
The promoter said it was pleased with the outcome and thanked everyone involved in bringing the matter to a conclusion.
Aujla first addressed the situation with fans on August 12, explaining that the Perth concert had been rescheduled while he waited for his visa to be approved.
The singer also asked fans to keep their tickets while the situation was being resolved.
Reports suggested the visa delay may have involved mistaken identity.
According to news.com.au, immigration authorities reportedly identified a person of interest with the same name as Aujla.
Aujla’s representatives claimed authorities had confused him with another Jaskaran Singh.
That individual was reportedly arrested in Ontario in May 2024 over alleged extortion and firearm offences.
Aujla’s representatives maintained that the singer was not the person authorities had identified.
With his visa now approved, Aujla is scheduled to perform in Adelaide on August 16.
He will then travel to Melbourne for two performances at Rod Laver Arena.
The Australian tour will continue with shows in Sydney and Brisbane.
The rescheduled Perth concert is now expected to close the Australian leg on Monday, August 24.
Aujla will also travel to New Zealand for a performance at Auckland’s Spark Arena.
The singer appeared to make light of the visa situation on social media.
On August 13, he shared a meme showing people celebrating to his hit song ‘Softly’, suggesting he and his team were excited to arrive in Australia.
Karan Aujla is one of the biggest names in contemporary Punjabi music.
Born in India, he moved to Canada at the age of 17 and initially built his career as a songwriter.
He later established himself as a solo artist, developing a global audience through Punjabi pop and hip-hop.
His music has attracted billions of views on YouTube and millions of listeners worldwide.
His 2025 album P-Pop Culture also achieved major international streaming success.
The album reached number one on Spotify in India and Pakistan.
It also reached number four in Canada and topped Apple Music charts across the three countries.
P-Pop Culture became the highest-debuting Punjabi-language album in Canadian history.
It recorded 12.4 million streams during its first week.
The figure surpassed the previous record set by Aujla’s 2023 album Making Memories.
With the visa issue now resolved, Australian fans can look forward to seeing Karan Aujla take the stage.
