• Applicants must have an overall successful business career and no record of unacceptable business activity.
   
• The requirements for applicants with state / territory sponsorship are less stringent.
   
• Without sponsorship, applicants must be younger than 45 years old; and have vocational English.
   
• With Sponsorship, applicants don’t need English (although they will be required to pay tuition fees for English classes), and can be up to 55 years old – although the relevant state / territory authorities can waive this requirement if exceptional circumstances exist.
