Australia · Temporary visa
The Subclass 407 lets you come to Australia for structured workplace training or professional development for up to two years. Since 11 March 2026, your sponsor and its training nomination must both be approved before you can apply.
Training types
The 407 covers three kinds of training. Your sponsor's nomination must fit one of them.
Workplace training you need to get registration, membership or a licence for your occupation.
Structured workplace training to improve your skills in your current occupation or field of study.
A professional development programme, often for staff sent by an overseas employer.
Home Affairs is clear the 407 is not a way to fill labour shortages. Any work must be paid at Australian rates.
Requirements
The exact requirements depend on the type of training and your circumstances.
An Australian organisation approved as a temporary activities sponsor, unless the sponsor is a Commonwealth agency.
The sponsor's nomination for your training programme must be approved before you lodge your visa application.
Structured training or professional development with clear outcomes. The visa is not a way to fill job vacancies.
You may need to show English ability, depending on the training type and your passport.
Adequate health insurance for you and any family members for your whole stay.
Medical checks and police certificates may be requested as part of the application.
Documents
Your sponsor prepares some of these, you prepare the rest.
Proof your sponsor is an approved temporary activities sponsor.
The approved nomination and the training plan it is based on.
Passport, CV, qualifications and employment letters linked to the training.
Health insurance, English evidence if required, and police and medical checks if asked.

Can I apply for a 407 visa without a sponsor?
No. For applications lodged from 11 March 2026, you need an approved sponsor and, unless the sponsor is a Commonwealth agency, an approved training nomination first. An application lodged before these are in place may be invalid.
Can I work on a 407 visa?
Only in the training activities approved for your visa. Any work done during training must be paid in line with Australian minimum wage rules.
How much does the 407 visa cost?
Home Affairs lists the main applicant charge from AUD 535 from 1 July 2026. Family members and sponsor charges cost extra.
Does the 407 visa lead to permanent residence?
Not directly. It is a temporary visa, but the experience gained may help with other visas later.
Can my family come with me?
Yes. Your partner and children can be included in your application. Each pays a separate charge.
Is the 407 a Canadian visa?
No. Subclass 407 is an Australian visa. Canada has no visa called 407; its training routes are work permits under different programmes.
Will I be paid during training?
Any work you do as part of the training must be paid in line with Australian minimum wage rules.
Do I need an English test?
It depends on the type of training and your passport. Some applicants must show functional English or higher.
We review your sponsor, nomination and training plan before you lodge, so your application starts valid.
