The Designated Area Migration Agreement (DAMA) is a tailored migration program designed to address specific labour shortages in designated regions of Australia. DAMAs allow employers in these regions to sponsor skilled and semi-skilled overseas workers for positions that cannot be filled by local Australians.

DAMAs target specific regions experiencing labour shortages, including rural and remote areas as well as cities facing unique economic challenges.
DAMAs offer flexibility in the types of occupations that can be sponsored, allowing for a wider range of skilled and semi-skilled workers to be eligible for sponsorship.
Employers in DAMA regions enter into labour agreements with the Australian government, outlining the terms and conditions for sponsoring overseas workers under the DAMA program.
DAMAs provide a streamlined pathway for employers to sponsor overseas workers, with simplified visa processes and reduced administrative requirements.
DAMAs may offer concessions on English language requirements and salary thresholds, making it easier for employers to access overseas talent.
Depending on the specific DAMA arrangement, workers sponsored under DAMAs may have pathways to permanent residency in Australia, providing opportunities for long-term settlement.
OSVC specialises in assisting employers and workers navigate the DAMA process, providing expert guidance on eligibility requirements, application procedures, and compliance obligations. With our support, employers can address their workforce needs more effectively, while overseas workers can access opportunities for employment and potential permanent residency in designated areas of Australia.
Our process always starts with an initial consultation. This allows us to gather all the information we need to properly advise you about your visa options.
