Business Visa
The Business skills category is designed to cater for:
- business people who are owners or part-owners of a business
- senior executives employed by major businesses
- business employees within the senior level of management
- who intend to use their business skills to obtain a substantial ownership interest in a new or existing business in Australia and also actively participate in that business at a senior level; or
- have a substantial business or investment background and are willing to make a substantial investment in State or Territory securities; or
- persons that hold provisional or temporary visas and have already established a business in Australia.
The Business Skills Points Test allocates points for Age, English language ability, Net assets, and Sponsorship by regional authorities. The Business Skills category has undergone a number of changes recently and it is important to keep up to date with the various State /Territory sponsorship opportunities and requirements. It is recommended that depending on the visa type, applicants ensure that their business records, including business ownership, share of company registers, evidence of business & personal assets/liabilities, etc are in good order and they are in a position to provide audited accounts for relevant financial years.
The business skills stream has a number of Provisional & Permanent Visas that cover a range of business opportunities. Ie:
