Going to Australia under 482 Visa (Temporary Skill Shortage visa - subclass 482) is a temporary skilled visa. This visa is for foreign skilled workers sponsored by an Australian business to work in Australia.

Currently, many workers are looking forward to coming to Australia to work through Vietnamese labor export companies. However, the promotion of bringing Vietnamese workers to Australia to work now has to go through an environmental company of another country.

Due to the fact that there is no signed or favorable labor cooperation between the Vietnamese and Australian governments, mainly Vietnamese companies exploit and seek labor cooperation to the Australian market. Therefore, companies that bring workers to Australia to work now often go around other foreign environmental companies that cannot deploy to bring workers to Australia to work in the official way.

Therefore, currently, Vietnamese businesses and workers are looking forward to the signing and favorable cooperation of the two governments, how new businesses can promote the process of bringing workers to Australia to work safely completely.

Therefore, Vietnamese workers come to Australia to work through different types of visas, so many workers are confused between visa categories, especially 482 visa, which is a labor export category, but it is NOT SO.

What is Visa 482?

The 482 visa is a temporary skill shortage visa, allowing a skilled worker to temporarily live and work in Australia if nominated by an approved employer who has not been able to find an appropriately skilled Australian worker. Depending on the nominated occupation, the order will be granted the appropriate visa type. Accordingly, the holder's visa will be in Australia for 2 to 4 years. In addition, 482 Visa is also abbreviated as Visa TSS.

How many types of Australian visa 482?

       Visa 482 Australia has 3 types, including: 482 short-term visa, 482 medium-long-term visa and 482 visa for employment.

Accordingly, they can settle in Australia by accessing the transitional 186 visa when they meet the following conditions:
