Subclass 407 Training Visa – Eligible Occupations List

The 407 Occupations List sets out the skilled roles and ANZSCO (Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations) codes eligible for sponsorship under the Training Visa (Subclass 407). Unlike general skilled migration or standard employer-sponsored work visas, the Subclass 407 visa is specifically designed to allow foreign workers, recent graduates, and professionals to undertake structured, workplace-based occupational training in Australia to enhance their skills or obtain professional registration.

Understanding whether your occupation is listed and how it maps to the correct training stream is the critical first step in determining your nomination eligibility.

How This List Is Used

The Department of Home Affairs specifies eligible occupations under legislative instrument LIN 19/050. Your nominated occupation and its 6-digit ANZSCO code determine how your training program must be structured and nominated by an approved sponsor:

Training Streams and List Requirements

The Subclass 407 visa covers three distinct occupational training types:

Type 1

Occupational Training Required for Registration

For individuals who need to undertake workplace-based training to obtain professional registration, membership, or licensing required to practice their occupation in Australia or their home country.

Type 2

Occupational Training to Improve Skills in an Eligible Occupation

For applicants with relevant recent qualification or work experience who require structured workplace training in an eligible occupation specified on the MLTSSL, STSOL, or ROL.

Type 3

Occupational Training for Capacity Building Overseas

Includes professional development, overseas qualification completion, or government-supported training programs (occupation list requirements vary depending on the specific capacity-building sub-stream).

Duty Alignment Beyond Job Titles

Simply having a matching job title is insufficient. The Department of Home Affairs evaluates whether the actual tasks performed during your structured training program correspond directly with the core duties set out in the official ANZSCO classification for that code.

Are you eligible under the Subclass 407?

The 407 visa draws from a broad combined occupation list encompassing over 500 eligible ANZSCO codes across three main skilled lists: the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL), the Short-term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL), and the Regional Occupation List (ROL).

Below is a representative sample of eligible occupations across common industry sectors:

ANZSCO Code	Occupation Title	Skilled List	Skill Level
221111	Accountant (General)	MLTSSL	Skill Level 1
133111	Construction Project Manager	MLTSSL	Skill Level 1
233211	Civil Engineer	MLTSSL	Skill Level 1
261312	Developer Programmer	MLTSSL	Skill Level 1
254412	Registered Nurse (Aged Care)	MLTSSL	Skill Level 1
351311	Chef	MLTSSL	Skill Level 2
341111	Electrician (General)	MLTSSL	Skill Level 3
131112	Sales and Marketing Manager	STSOL	Skill Level 1
141111	Café or Restaurant Manager	STSOL	Skill Level 2
225111	Advertising Specialist	STSOL	Skill Level 1
121211	Cotton Grower	ROL	Skill Level 1
231111	Aeroplane Pilot	ROL	Skill Level 1

Note: The full list contains more than 500 ANZSCO codes under legislative instrument LIN 19/050. Contact our migration lawyers to verify whether your specific role qualifies.

Identify ANZSCO Classification

Confirm List Eligibility

Verify that your ANZSCO code appears on the legislative instrument for the 407 visa under the MLTSSL, STSOL, or ROL.

Determine Training Type

Confirm whether your nomination falls under mandatory registration, skill enhancement, or overseas capacity building.

Develop Structured Training Plan

Work with your sponsor to design a tailored, workplace-based training program with staged learning outcomes directly aligned with your ANZSCO tasks.

Lodge Nomination & Visa Application

Ensure the sponsor's nomination is lodged and approved alongside your visa application through ImmiAccount.

Book consultation

What things should you consider if applying under the 407 Occupations List?

Job Title vs. ANZSCO Misalignment

Choosing an ANZSCO code based on job title alone rather than detailed task duties is a leading cause of nomination refusals.

Inadequate Training Plan Structure

Submitting a generic training plan that resembles routine employment rather than structured, supervised learning leads to heavy scrutiny from Home Affairs.

Prior Qualification & Experience Gaps

Type 2 nominations require applicants to hold either 12 months of full-time relevant work/study experience in the prior 24 months.

Frequently Asked Questions

The official list can be found in Instrument No. LIN 19/050 – The Federal Register of Legislation. This includes all eligible ANZSCO codes from the MLTSSL, STSOL, and ROL lists.

No. While having an eligible occupation code is just one of the several requirements, the other requirements include having an approved Temporary Activity Sponsor, developing a tailored training plan, meeting the applicable health, character and Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) requirements.

Generally, a formal skill assessment is not required to apply for a Subclass 407 visa as it is required for most permanent visas or those with a points-based test. However, you must provide evidence that you have the necessary educational qualifications or experience to complete the proposed training.
