NOTE:
This visa is no longer available for new applicants.
From 18th March 2018, the Temporary Work (Skilled) Visa (Subclass 457) has been abolished and replaced by the new Temporary Skilled Shortage Visa (Subclass 482).
The Temporary Work (Skilled) visa or subclass 457 allows skilled workers to come to Australia and work for an approved business for up to four years.
You can apply for this visa only if you are sponsored by an approved Australian business. Its main objective is to facilitate Australian businesses to bridge the labor shortage in their respective industry.
A business can sponsor someone for this visa if they cannot find an Australian citizen or permanent resident to do the skilled work.
You can be in or outside Australia when you lodge your application.

You are entitled to fair pay and to basic rights and protections in the workplace. Your sponsor must provide you with the same terms and conditions as Australian workers performing the same work in the same work location.
