Find Your Path

Whether you’re a US startup opening a Sydney office, an APAC scaleup moving your team to Australia, or an individual navigating a complex personal visa — we’ve built a service for your situation.

US or UK tech startup entering Australia

You've raised your Series A or B and Australia is your first APAC market — or your team's base away from US uncertainty. You need entity setup, sponsorship approval, and visas for 3–20 core staff.

EU scaleup moving into APAC via Australia

You've built a strong business in the UK, Germany, Netherlands, or elsewhere in Europe and you're ready to enter Asia-Pacific. Australia gives you a stable, English-speaking APAC headquarters with strong rule of law — a credible base that Singapore and Hong Kong cannot match for IP protection and political stability. We handle entity setup, business sponsorship, and team visas so you can land and operate fast.

Individual or family complex migration

Partner visas, resident return visas, Section 57 responses, health and character waivers — we handle the cases others find difficult. Fixed fees, genuine care, and a team that has seen it all.

From the decision to expand — to your team holding PR

Most migration agents can file a visa. Very few understand the full commercial journey a business takes to land in Australia and grow a team here. This is what we manage — end to end.

Stage 01 – Foundaition

Pty Ltd registration, ABN, GST, local bank account, and resident director — everything your business needs to be lawfully operating in Australia from day one.

Stage 02 – Sponsor Status

Standard Business Sponsorship (SBS) approval

We prepare and lodge your application to become an approved sponsor with the Department of Home Affairs. Without this, no team members can be nominated. We structure the evidence file to ensure approval.

Stage 03 – Team In Australia

482 SID nominations and visas for your team

We nominate each role, manage Labour Market Testing, verify salary thresholds, and lodge individual 482 visa applications for your core team. Engineers, PMs, product leads — all qualify.

Stage 04 – PR Pathway

186 ENS — permanent residency for key staff

After two years on a 482 visa, your team can transition to permanent residency via the Temporary Residence Transition stream. 44, 000 PR places are allocated for 2025–26.

Stage 05

Ongoing Compliance and Growth Management

Salary threshold indexation, occupation code changes, new nominations as you hire, and accredited sponsor upgrades as your team grows. We monitor this so a compliance issue never catches you off-guard.

Every engagement starts with a strategy call. We map your specific situation, confirm which stages apply, and give you a clear timeline and fixed-fee quote before any work begins.

Why Australia?

The case for Australia has strengthened significantly. For US-based founders, H-1B costs reached $100, 000 per hire in 2025 — and visa uncertainty made building a stable team feel impossible. For European founders eyeing Asia-Pacific, Australia offers something Singapore and Hong Kong cannot: political stability, ironclad IP protection, and a rule-of-law environment that European businesses trust immediately. Both groups are arriving at the same conclusion — Australia is not a fallback, it is the better base.
