Combined list of eligible skilled occupations
Combined list of eligible skilled occupations
There is no separate Short-term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL) list on our website as visa programmes that utilise this list can also access some occupations on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL). For ease of reference, we have combined both the STSOL and the eligible MLTSSL occupations together.
A combined list of eligible skilled occupations are listed below in alphabetical order.
Note:
- There are caveats on certain occupations which exclude the use of the occupation in certain circumstances. These caveats only apply to the Temporary Work (Skilled) visa (Subclass 457) programme:
- caveats are indicated via ‘*** asterisks’. For the specific wording of each caveat – see legislative Instrument.
- a summary of Caveats on 457 occupations that apply to particular occupations is available
- You can only nominate Minister of Religion (ANZSCO 272211) for Training visa (subclass 407). This is indicated via an '* asterisk'.
The acronyms used in the legislative instrument and this table are listed in the Assessing authorities.
