Working Holiday Maker Age Limits Changed

The Australian Government has amended the Migration Regulations 1994 to change the age requirements for Working Holiday Maker visas, effective 30 June 2026. This legislative change was made under the Migration Act 1958. The specific details of which age limits have changed and how they affect different nationalities are set out in the official regulations. If you hold or are planning to apply for a Working Holiday Maker visa, you should review the updated age criteria on the Department of Home Affairs website to confirm your eligibility. The changes may affect both new applicants and those considering applying in the future. For complete information about the new age requirements and how they apply to your circumstances, visit the Federal Register of Legislation or contact Home Affairs directly.
