SKILLED MIGRATION · FIND YOUR OCCUPATION

Where could your skills take you?

Search a profession, qualification field or occupation code. Choose a suggestion or keep your own words.

Browse visa categories ↓ · Choose a research checklist →

Australia uses ANZSCO occupation codes. The directory combines the general skilled lists and Core Skills Occupation List; it does not cover every profession worldwide. Listing is one requirement, not a visa approval or a live state nomination opening. Other destinations have their own systems.

SKILLED MIGRATION & RESIDENCE

Your expertise.
A wider world.

Compare official skilled routes for people educated at home or abroad, including applicants from Pakistan, India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Nigeria and other Asian and African countries. Nationality alone does not determine the best route.

01 / YOUR PROFILE

Qualifications & work

Identify your occupation, qualification level, awarding country, licensing needs and documented skilled experience.

02 / YOUR ROUTE

Points or employer?

Some routes use a competitive selection pool. Others need a qualifying employer, nomination or a specific research/business case.

03 / YOUR EVIDENCE

Recognition & language

Check credential assessments, professional registration, approved language tests, family documents, funds and application fees.

Europe: check the country, not just the label.

The EU Blue Card does not cover every European country. National work permits, recognition, family residence, long-term residence and citizenship have separate rules. Use the official authority directory for countries not covered in this comparison.
