General
From 1 March 2003, DIMIA has introduced a new scheme whereby the

BUSINESS TALENT (MIGRANT) VISA
This visa gives direct and permanent residence for “high
calibre” business applicants.
It is a visa which can be applied for, either onshore or offshore,
but prior to such application, an applicant must have sponsorship
of a State or Territory of Australia and possess a sponsorship
form signed by the State Premier/Territory Chief Minister or their
delegate. If the applicant is over 55 years of age, the State
or Territory must consider and advise DIMIA that the business
to be established or participated in by the applicant will be
of exceptional economic benefit to the sponsoring State or Territory....

BUSINESS SKILLS (PROVISIONAL) VISAS
There are 6 Business Skills (Provisional) visas, all

Provisional Business Owner/Senior Executive/Investor visas, but
all of these require Australian State or Territory sponsorship.
Such sponsorship is not as demanding as that which will apply

visa. Even the unsponsored visa types, however, are required to
notify the relevant State/Territory of their intention to commence
business or participate in a business within that State or Territory....

an application and must hold one of a specified type of visa in
order to make a valid application. For instance, the primary applicant
seeking the grant of a permanent, Business Owner visa (Subclass
890) must hold one of the Business Skills (Provisional) visas
(Subclasses 160 – 165). However, an primary applicant for
