Working Holiday Visa
Guidance for eligible travellers who want to holiday, work, and plan their Australian experience properly.
Plan work and travel in Australia with clear visa direction
Working Holiday Maker pathways can allow eligible young travellers to have an extended holiday in Australia and work to support their stay. Eligibility, age settings, passport-country arrangements, specified work, and second or third visa rules can vary.
Team Chess helps travellers understand the right working holiday category, document expectations, current location, declared information, and how working holiday plans may connect to study, employer, partner, or skilled options later.
