What is an Australian Work Visa?
An Australian Work Visa enables skilled professionals, tradespeople, and sponsored employees to legally work in Australia. It is a key pathway for building a career, gaining international experience, and for many applicants, obtaining permanent residency.
What types of work visas are there?
Popular options include:
- Subclass 482 (Temporary Skill Shortage visa): For skilled workers sponsored by an Australian employer.
- Subclass 186 (Employer Nomination Scheme visa): Permanent residency for employees nominated by an Australian business.
- Subclass 189 (Skilled Independent visa): Points-tested permanent visa for highly skilled workers without sponsorship.
- Subclass 190 (Skilled Nominated visa): Permanent visa for skilled workers nominated by a state or territory.
- Subclass 491 (Skilled Work Regional visa): Provisional visa for skilled workers living and working in designated regional areas.
