The visa is divided into three streams: Core Skills, Specialist, and Labour Agreement, with a maximum validity period of up to four years.<\/p><p class=\"p1\">As of 7 December 2024, the SID\/482 visa has fully replaced the former TSS\/482 visa. Its purpose is to provide a fast and flexible pathway to address skills shortages and meet labour market needs.
