Designated Area Migration Agreements (DAMA)
Explore occupations and employers recorded across Australian Designated Area Migration Agreements. DAMA arrangements can provide regional employers with access to occupations and concessions that may not be available through standard skilled migration programs.
What is a DAMA?
A Designated Area Migration Agreement (DAMA) is a formal arrangement between the Australian Government and a state, territory or regional authority. It allows approved employers in designated regions to access selected occupations and, in some cases, concessions to standard migration requirements when suitable local workers are not available.
Each DAMA has its own occupations, employer requirements and conditions. An occupation or employer appearing in this directory does not mean sponsorship is currently available or that a person automatically qualifies for a visa.
