Business Visa FAQ

Can I bring a family member with me?

Yes, you can. You can include your family members on your visa application or apply for them to join you after you have entered Australia.

You can include the following people in your visa application:

  • Your partner (married or de facto)
  • Your or your partner’s dependents

The visa application charges change constantly according to the Department of Immigration and Border Protection’s dispositions. Fees vary according to the family composition and other factors. For a more accurate answer, you can visit this website:

Your must be below 55 years of age for you to qualify for Subclass 188A Visa. You can only enjoy waiver based benefits on the following grounds:

  • Introduction of a novel technology or expertise into Australian market.
  • Creation of a high volume of new jobs.
  • Enhancement of business activities in a particular region of Australia.
  • Ensuring a tremendous rise in revenue generation of other sectors of the economy.


Presently, this age restriction is not applicable to Business Investment Visas, especially 188C (requires you to invest $5 million AUD) and 188D (requires you to invest $15 million AUD).

The law stipulates that your business must have achieved at least AUD 500,000 annual turnover in each year for at least 2 out of the last 4 fiscal years. You must therefore be experienced (at least 2 years) in business management for you to be qualified for this visa. This also implies that a lot of small businesses would be disqualified based on the above criterion, regardless of how long they have been operating. Take note that if your business fulfills the condition 5 years ago and doesn’t fulfill it in 2 out of the last 4 years, you will be disqualified.

Yes, prior to the visa application stage, you must obtain a State Government nomination from the State where you wish to run your business. One of the prerequisites for this is?a full and proper business plan, which will be assessed during the State nomination application stage.

However, you have nothing to worry about because our team can help you with this. They will also make sure your business plan is in line with the requirements of the State Government and the Department of Immigration and Border Protection.

No, you have up to 12 months after visa approval for you to transfer a certain amount of your funds. The amount you are required to transfer for the commencement of your business varies depending on the State you applied for. But generally, be ready to transfer at least $400,000 AUD. We always advise most of our clients to opt for international bank transfer, also known as “telegraphic transfer”. Some countries or banks will inquire why you are transferring such a large amount of money and all you have to do is provide the visa grant letter. Take note that your entire transfer can also be partitioned into multiple instalments. This means that you don’t have to increase your transfer limit. There is also an option of using a third-party agent such as TorFX or Travelex for your transfer. This method has proven to be reliable and efficient.

No, all you need here is just an overall profit-making trend in order to convince the Department of Immigration and Border Protection. However, losses recorded at any time can be associated with depreciation of assets, business re-engineering or marketing expenditure. All of these situations sound logical and can be easily explained to the Department of Immigration and Border Protection, provided you back up your claims with relevant evidence.

It is only a misconception to think English language is required for the Business Visas. In fact, if you able to get an “International English Language Testing System” (IELTS) score of:

  • 5 in all 4 components: You will be awarded 5
  • 7 in all 4 components: You will be awarded 10


But, if you fail to get an IELTS score of 4.5 in all components, which is the minimum for “Functional English”, you’ll have to pay a second instalment of the visa application fee to the Department of Immigration and Border Protection.
