Details

This chapter and associated annexes contain provisions that bind in visa arrangements for highly skilled business people. This ensures greater certainty and new access for temporary business travel between the UK and Australia.

It guarantees high-skilled British workers can apply for Australian temporary visas without having to worry about Australia’s changing skilled occupation list.

It also commits both sides to not introducing labour market testing for each other’s visa regimes.
