Work and Live in Regional Australia with DAMA

What is the DAMA Visa?

The Designated Area Migration Agreement (DAMA) Visa is a tailored program that allows employers in designated regional areas of Australia to sponsor skilled workers for occupations not covered by standard visa programs. DAMA agreements are linked to Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) or Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) visas, offering pathways to permanent residency in some cases. Meta Education Consultant provides expert support to navigate the complex DAMA application process, ensuring compliance with Department of Home Affairs requirements.
