Temporary Work Visa for Australia

Australia is known for its solid economy and offers a high minimum wage, approximately 3,300 AUD or around 2,080 euros. The country provides a peaceful lifestyle and is considered safe, making it an excellent choice for temporary work and residence.

Through its Department of Home Affairs, the Australian government has created several visas for foreigners who wish to live and work temporarily in Australia. Some visas may restrict work to a specific area or profession.
