Changes to Working Holiday Maker and UK Youth Mobility Scheme

1 June

Good news for UK citizens as the Australia-United Kingdom Free Trade Agreement entered into force in 31 May 2023. Let’s see the main changes that the agreement brings to the WHV program:

Age Limit Extension: Previously, the age limit for UK citizens participating in Australia's Working Holiday Maker program was 30 years. The new age limit is 35 years.

From 1 July 2024, UK passport holders will be eligible to be granted Working Holiday visas up to a total of three years without having to meet any specified work requirements
