PIV (Premium Investor Visa)


The Premium Investor Visa was introduced on 1 July 2015.

The PIV is a separate visa program that targets talented entrepreneurs and innovators with a minimum $15 million to invest at the invitation of the Australian Government.

The PIV focuses on attracting a small number of highly talented and entrepreneurial individuals to Australia who can contribute those skills and talents into areas which deliver a long term economic benefit to the country.

The Premium Investor Visa is available at the invitation of the Australian Government only, with potential applicants to be nominated solely by Austrade. State and Territory Governments will be able to play an important role in helping to identify potential applicants. Expressions of Interest (EOI) for the Premium Investor visa will not be considered unless you have previously discussed your application with Austrade.

Austrade to then assess and nominate on approved criteria based on entrepreneurial skill or talent and ongoing ‘benefit’ to Australia.
