Important FAQ's


To be eligible for Tasmania’s skilled migration program, applicants must possess skills listed on the Australian Government’s subclass 190 and 491 Skilled Occupation List. Additionally, applicants must meet specific criteria such as age, English language proficiency, work experience, and qualifications that align with the demand in Tasmania's labor market.

Skilled migrants are attracted to Tasmania for its excellent lifestyle, including a lower cost of living, beautiful natural surroundings, and a strong sense of community. Additionally, Tasmania offers a range of career opportunities, particularly in sectors with skills shortages, and access to world-class educational institutions, including a globally recognized university.

Tasmania provides a range of services to assist skilled migrants in settling in the state, including job placement services, community support programs, and help with navigating the migration process. The state government actively promotes the migration program to encourage skilled individuals to contribute to Tasmania’s economy and cultural diversity.

Tasmania offers several pathways for skilled migration, including the State Nomination pathway for the subclass 190 visa and the Regional Nomination pathway for the subclass 491 visa.
