Business Visa & Immigration to Australia

Business Visa & Immigration to Australia

On 1 March 2003, a new two-stage Business Migration scheme was introduced for Australia. Under this new arrangement, business migrants are granted a Provisional Visa for four years, and after establishing the required level of business or maintaining their eligible investment, they can apply for a Business Skills Residence Visa.

A positive aspect behind these changes is that it gives prospective business migrants the opportunity to trial their intentions in Australia rather than making a permanent decision. They can gain a firsthand perspective on business opportunities available in Australia, liaise with Australian State/Territory Government agencies and local businesses on the type of business which may be favorably viewed, conduct market research, meet local citizens, and examine the settlement and education prospects for their families as well as experience the Australian lifestyle.
