The important and necessary
ingredients for business success are: a steadily
growing economy, a highly educated workforce
and an excellent standard of living. Australia
meets all these requirements and more. Our governments
are dedicated both on a National and State level
to attract Business Owner and Investor migrants
to Australia.
The majority of business skills
migrants will enter Australia initially on a
provisional (temporary) visa for 4 years and,
after satisfactory evidence of a specified level
of business or investment activity, may apply
for permanent residence. The pathway to permanent
residence is designed to give clarity and certainty
to provisional business migrants and relies
upon the establishment and successful management
of genuine business activity in Australia.
Applicants for these visas
are expected to, after a period of time in Australia,
provide valuable input to the Australian economy
by becoming actively involved as owners or part
owners at a senior level in a business. The
business must fulfill one of the following:
|
Development of business links
with international markets; |
|
Creation or maintenance of
employment in Australia; |
|
Export of Australian goods
and services; |
|
Production of goods and services
that would otherwise be imported; |
|
Introduction of new or improved
technology; |
|
Addition to commercial activity
and competition within sectors of the Australian
economy. |
In order to meet the obligations
of this visa category, the applicant must have
a Designated Investment for a period of 4 years.
It is necessary for the applicant to demonstrate
an overall successful record of eligible investment
or qualifying business activity.
This visa allows high caliber
business migrants to obtain up-front direct
permanent residence in Australia if they have
high-level business attributes and are sponsored
by a state or territory.
An overall successful business career and a
commitment to establishing or participating
in a qualifying business in Australia are also
prerequisites to the grant of this visa.
