Business migration

What does the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) require of business migrants? The business visa applicant is required to satisfy DIAC of:

a genuine and realistic commitment to establish, purchase or participate in a business in Australia
intention to maintain a substantial ownership interest in a business
a business history which demonstrates business skills and attributes
thresholds of business turnover and business assets in overseas business
age less than 45 years for unsponsored visa; less than 55 years for a state government sponsored visa, unless proposed business will bring exceptional economic benefit

Visas

The categories of visas are: business owner, senior executive, investor and business talent. Only the business talent visa gives immediate permanent residence, the other visas are provisional four year visas leading to permanent residence.
