Other Visas

🔎 Overview

Not every situation fits into Skilled, Partner, Employer, or Student visas. Australia also offers a range of Other Visas that cover:

Staying lawful while awaiting decisions (Bridging visas)

Visiting for tourism, business, or family (Visitor visas)

Youth work & travel opportunities (Working Holiday visas)

Accessing healthcare in Australia (Medical Treatment visa)

Family care or special circumstances (Carer & Orphan visas)

Seeking protection or refuge (Humanitarian visas)

Short-term specialist work and events (Temporary & Specialist visas)

These visas are often situation-specific and have unique conditions. Choosing the correct one is critical to avoid becoming unlawful or breaching conditions.
