The Subclass 408 visa is a temporary activity visa that allows applicants to work in Australia or to participate in projects and activities on a temporary basis.
Many States and Territories closed their Business Migration Programs in light of the Global Pandemic due to COVID-19 but in many occasions, the Government has said that Australia is open for business, and they encourage investments.
A new stream of the subclass 408 visa is in effect for those who are unable to depart Australia and also to address workforce shortages rising in critical sectors as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
