The Skilled Regional visa (Subclass 887) is a permanent residence visa that enables holders to live in Australia permanently. It is designed for skilled migrants who previously held certain provisional regional visas and have met residence and work requirements in designated regional areas of Australia.
This visa is a pathway to a permanent residency visa and eventual Australian citizenship, allowing eligible applicants to live, work, and study permanently anywhere in Australia after demonstrating their commitment to regional communities. The visa was introduced to encourage skilled migrants to contribute to regional economic growth before transitioning to permanent residency.
The Subclass 887 visa is generally available to migrants who previously held specific regional provisional visas and who have satisfied regional living and employment requirements.
Eligible applicants typically include:
Applicants must have lived and worked in regional or designated areas of Australia for the required period before applying for permanent residency.
The Subclass 887 visa grants permanent residency, allowing holders to live, work, and study anywhere in Australia without regional restrictions. Unlike provisional visas, there are no limitations on location or employment once the visa is granted.
Permanent residents under the Subclass 887 visa gain access to Australia’s public healthcare system, Medicare (Australia's health care scheme), as well as eligibility for certain government benefits and services, subject to relevant waiting periods and eligibility rules.
Subclass 887 visa holders can travel in and out of Australia for five years from the date the visa is granted. After meeting the relevant residency requirements, permanent residents may become eligible to apply for Australian citizenship.

Applicants must meet several key requirements before applying for the Skilled Regional visa.
To apply for Subclass 887, applicants must hold or have previously held an eligible provisional regional visa, and it is important to maintain a current visa status throughout the qualifying period, including for dependent partners holding a skilled visa. Eligible visas include:
The visa must have been valid during the period the applicant lived and worked in regional Australia.
Applicants must demonstrate that they have lived in a designated regional area of Australia for at least two years while holding their provisional visa.
Evidence of residence may include leases, rental agreements, utility bills, or other documentation proving the applicant’s address during the relevant period.
Applicants must also show they have worked full-time in a designated regional area for at least 12 months.
Employment can include paid work for an employer or self-employment, provided it meets the required full-time threshold.
Applicants must also satisfy additional visa requirements, including:
Unlike many other skilled visas, the Subclass 887 visa is not points-tested, meaning there is no requirement to meet a minimum points score on factors like age, English ability or work experience.

The general application process includes the following steps:
Processing times for the Subclass 887 visa can vary depending on factors such as application volume, the completeness of the documentation provided, and whether additional information is requested by the Department.
Submitting a well-prepared application with clear evidence can help reduce delays.
After the application is lodged, applicants may be asked to provide further documents or complete additional checks.
If the visa is granted, applicants receive permanent residency status and can live and work anywhere in Australia.
Applicants must provide evidence demonstrating that they meet the visa requirements. Common documents include:
Providing clear and consistent documentation is essential for a successful application.
Applicants may include certain family members in their Subclass 887 visa application.
Eligible family members may include:
Family members included in the application must also meet the relevant health and character requirements.
Partners and dependent children must be declared in the visa application and may need to provide supporting documentation demonstrating their relationship to the primary applicant.
Applicants must pay a visa application charge set by the Australian Government when lodging their Subclass 887 application.
Additional costs may also apply, including:
Government fees may change periodically, so applicants should confirm the current charges before lodging their application.
Preparing a Subclass 887 visa application requires careful documentation of regional residence and employment history. Missing or inconsistent evidence can result in delays or refusal.
