    G’day John. Welcome to our community and thanks for your post. 👍🏻

    Plumber is a skilled trade occupation that’s currently listed on the MLTSSL (Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List) under ANZSCO 334111 – Plumber, which means it is eligible for subclass 482 (Temporary Skill Shortage) and subclass 186 (Employer Nomination Scheme) visas, among others.

    What are the requirements for plumber jobs in Australia?

    To be eligible for a sponsored visa as a plumber, here’s what you’ll typically need:

    1. Skills Assessment

    You must have a positive skills assessment through Trades Recognition Australia (TRA).

    Website: https://www.tradesrecognitionaustralia.gov.au

    2. English Language

    You must meet English requirements (e.g. IELTS score of 5.0 overall with no band less than 5, or equivalent test).

    3. Work Experience

    Your 17 years of experience is excellent. You’ll need to show verifiable work history, especially if applying for a skills assessment or a permanent visa later on.

    4. Job Offer & Visa Sponsorship

    You’ll need a job offer from an Australian employer who is willing to sponsor you. They must be an approved sponsor or be willing to become one.
