Corporate Immigration

For corporate needs, Australia offers sponsorship pathways to attract and retain international talent: temporary visas with work rights and permanent residence options. Strategies often include subclass 482 (Skills in Demand), subclass 186 (Employer Nomination Scheme), and, for regional areas, subclass 494.

Employer considerations

• Become an approved sponsor and nominate a role within eligible ANZSCO occupations.
• Pay at least the applicable market salary and comply with visa conditions.
• Undertake labour market testing where required.
• Explore labour agreements if the role is not on standard occupation lists.
