Work and Holiday Visa (Subclass 462)
On 25 September 2014, Australia and Portugal signed a reciprocal Work and Holiday (subclass 462) visa arrangement.
Young adults from Portugal and Australia, aged 18–30 years, can travel to each other's country for one year and undertake short-term work and study.
Following a temporary suspension, applications for the Work and Holiday visa (subclass 462) for Portuguese passport holders have resumed.
Eligible Portuguese citizens can apply for the visa, which allows young adults to travel and undertake short-term work in Australia.
