The Work and Holiday (Subclass 462) visa ballot for China, India, and Vietnam closes on Thursday, 25 June 2026. If you are an eligible citizen aged 18 to 30, register now
If you have been thinking about coming to Australia on a Work and Holiday visa, now is the time to act. The 462 visa allows eligible young people to work and travel in Australia, and for nationals of China, India, and Vietnam, access is through a ballot system rather than a standard application process.
India is participating in its second year of the programme, with 1,000 places on offer. If you are from India, China, or Vietnam and meet the eligibility criteria, you need to register via https://ap1.hubs.ly/y0ZCT80 before the ballot closes on 25 June 2026. Registering does not guarantee a place, as selections are made through the ballot process, but you cannot be considered if you do not register.
