Australia has long been the destination of choice for professionals seeking new opportunities. For those looking to contribute their specialized skills for a short duration, the Temporary Work (Short Stay Specialist) Visa (subclass 400) is the gateway to a unique and enriching experience.
The subclass 400 visa is tailored for individuals with exceptional expertise in their field, offering them the chance to work on short-term projects or fill specific roles that require specialized skills. Unlike other work visas, this visa doesn’t demand employer sponsorship, making it an attractive option for professionals and experts worldwide.
This is a temporary visa. You can stay in Australia for up to 6 months, depending on the circumstances.
You must arrive in Australia within 6 months of the date the visa is granted or a lesser period specified by the Minister. We will let you know in your visa grant letter. Your stay period as shown on your visa grant letter will start on your first arrival date in Australia. The stay period will not reset each time you arrive in Australia.
You can include family members of the family unit in your application when you apply.
Non-ongoing work means work that is likely to be completed within 6 months or less, and you do not expect or arrange to stay in Australia after this time for any reason related to that work.Â
You will need to show that you have the skills, knowledge or experience to do this work. Things you could show us include:
The subclass 400 visa does not allow a person to:
Securing a Temporary Work (Short Stay Specialist) Visa involves a meticulous application process. Prospective visa holders must present a compelling case, demonstrating the urgency and specificity of their skills in the Australian context. This often includes providing evidence of formal invitations or nominations from the Australian entity seeking their expertise.
Financial capacity and health insurance are integral components of the application. Demonstrating the ability to cover living expenses during the stay and ensuring adequate health coverage are prerequisites for a successful application.
Hiring an immigration consultant thus can be helpful and reduce the stress of the process!
It’s crucial to recognize that the subclass 400 visa is a temporary arrangement. While it opens doors to exciting opportunities, it doesn’t provide a direct pathway to permanent residency. Individuals with aspirations of settling in Australia permanently might need to explore alternative visa options, such as skilled migration visas or employer-sponsored visas.
The visa costs AUD 405.00 for the main applicant.
In conclusion, the Temporary Work (Short Stay Specialist) Visa presents a valuable opportunity for professionals seeking short-term engagements in Australia. Whether you’re a seasoned expert in your field or an organization in need of specialized skills, this visa opens avenues for collaboration and knowledge exchange.
As with any immigration process, staying informed about the latest updates and consulting with official Australian immigration authorities or a registered migration agent is paramount. The subclass 400 visa isn’t just a travel document; it’s a key that unlocks doors to a world of professional enrichment and cross-cultural collaboration Down Under

CanOz staff were very polite and accommodating. This is the person you want to go to if you want to get things done quickly and efficiently without any hassles. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, thank you so much!Tiegan Murphy2024-02-03Could not have asked for a better experience working with CanOz! Bakhash was there to answer questions every step of the way and made the whole process of getting our Australian PR so seamless. We couldn’t recommend him or this company more. If you are thinking of immigrating to Australia, this is absolutely the company you need to work with! Thank you Bakhash, for making our dreams come true!Arjun R'Krishnan2024-02-03My Australian PR application took about 5 years to reach an outcome. It was a bit of a complicated case and I might have lost hope had Baksh not been my migration agent. By the time I got introduced to Baksh I had already tried a couple of popular agents and got frustrated by the lack of transparency they demonstrated. Baksh was the polar opposite to those money grabbers. He was always clear with his suggestions, had excellent knowledge of the system and his advice helped navigate through complexities with so much ease. The payments were always discussed and was clarified too. An absolute gem of a professional. By the time I received 2 invites in 2022, I trusted Baksh's recommendation and opted to go for 189 albeit being more complicated than a 491. I am so glad I did. I cannot recommend Baksh and Canoz enough.
