The Australian government announced an increased validity period for business visitor visas for nationals from Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries and Timor-Leste.
Key Points:
Additional Information: The business visitor visa allows holders to travel to Australia to negotiate contracts, make general business or employment enquiries, participate in conferences or trade fairs and be a part of official government visits.
BAL Analysis: Nationals from ASEAN countries and Timor-Leste will now have more opportunities in Australia to visit and conduct business. The government hopes this initiative will boost trade and investments while promoting job growth and increased cultural exchanges.
