Business, industry and regional outreach

​​​​The Department has dedicated Business, Industry and Regional Outreach (BIRO) officers to provide information on migration to:

  • business
  • industry, including professional and industry associations and unions
  • government agencies at all levels
  • regional Australia stakeholders.

BIRO officers engage with stakeholders across the country to increase understanding of visa pathway options to help employers fill vacant positons where Australian workers are unavailable.

If you would like to find out about upcoming outreach events in your local area, please use this contact form.

Using a migration agent

BIRO officers cannot provide migration advice to individuals.

If you would like independent migration advice, you can use a registered migration agent. You can also speak to a legal practitioner. Only registered migration agents and legal practitioners can charge for immigration assistance.
