Subclass 887

Skilled Independent Regional Visa (Subclass 887)

Build your future in regional Australia and move toward Permanent Residency through your work experience in a regional business. You’ll have full work and study rights, access to Medicare, the ability to sponsor eligible family members, and a clear pathway to citizenship, while supporting regional growth. Many regional centres are also just a short flight from major cities like Sydney. This pathway suits skilled workers who previously held a Subclass 482 or 457 visa and have already worked in regional Australia for at least two years, allowing them to transition from temporary status to permanent residence.

Skilled Independent Regional Visa (Subclass 887)

“Subclass 887 is a permanent visa for people who have already lived and worked in regional Australia.”

Turn Your Regional Effort into Permanent Residency.

The Subclass 887 visa is the final step for people who came to Australia on a regional provisional visa and did what they committed to do — live regionally and work locally. There are no more tests, sponsors, or competitions.

• No points test, no sponsorship required:
If you’ve already lived in a regional area for at least two years and worked one year full-time (or equivalent), you’re eligible. Nothing extra to prove.

• Permanent residency without conditions:
Once approved, you become a permanent resident of Australia with full freedom — no regional restrictions and no visa renewals.

• Total career freedom:
Work anywhere in Australia, change employers, switch industries, start a business, or grow one you’ve already built, without visa limits.

• Family included automatically:
Your partner and children receive permanent residency with you, including access to Medicare, schools, and full work rights.

• Travel and citizenship pathway:
You can travel freely in and out of Australia and, after meeting residency requirements, apply for Australian citizenship.

• Proof-based, not competitive:
This visa isn’t about points or rankings. It’s about showing real evidence, payslips, employment letters, rental agreements, proving you genuinely lived and worked in regional Australia.

This visa rewards commitment. You didn’t compete for points, you put down roots, contributed to a regional community, and earned permanency.
