business visas

The Business Visa Program encourages successful business people to establish or develop a business in Australia. The system allows business people to be initially granted a Temporary Visa for up to four years. When you have established the required level of business or maintained investment activities, you are then entitled to apply for Permanent Residence.

If you need to visit Australia for business purposes for a period of less than 3 months the Business Visitor Visa is what you require. For more information on how to apply for this visa online please click here.
