Working Holiday Visa

The main purpose of this visa is to allow you to have an extended holiday while supplementing your funds with short-term work in Australia.

This visa is for people aged 18 to 30 years of age, who are interested in a working holiday of up to 12 months in Australia.

Important:

You must have turned 18, but not turned 31, at the time of your visa application. This visa allows you to supplement the cost of your holiday through short-term employment. However, if your primary reason for travelling to Australia is to participate in the work force, you should consider a visa designed for that purpose.

You must pay a non-refundable visa application charge when you lodge your visa application.

If you are granted this visa you can: - enter Australia within 12 months of grant
- stay up to 12 months
- leave and re-enter Australia any number of times while the visa is valid
- work in Australia for up to six months with each employer
- study for up to four months.

If you hold a second Working Holiday visa, you may return to work for a further six months for an employer with whom you worked on your first Working Holiday visa.
