Important: this postcode list is out of date
This list applied to the Regional Occupation List for the former TSS visa. The 482 Skills in Demand (SID) visa, which replaced the TSS visa on 7 December 2024, uses the Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL) and has no separate regional occupation list. The postcodes below also reflect the regional definition used before 16 November 2019. Since then, for regional visas such as the 491 and 494, designated regional areas cover all of Australia except Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. See regional areas for the current definitions. The information below is kept for reference.
