Veterinary Immigration

Veterinary hospitals, clinics and specialist or emergency practices in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Malaysia, Vietnam, Japan, Taiwan and most Asian countries are very open to the prospect of employing Veterinarians, Veterinary Nurses and Veterinary Technicians from other countries and regions, both within Asia Pacific, as well as from UK, Europe, Canada, USA and more.

Each country within the area we refer to as our Australia+New Zealand+Asia Region has a wide diversity of immigration processes ranging from skills assessments to work visa rules, regulations and sponsorship criteria. Veterinary Jobs Marketplace is not a recruitment agency or immigration agency and we are not able to provide any specific advice in relation to the likelihood of a successful application or the steps to achieve acceptance in any country. The information provided is merely to assist potential veterinary immigrants with an initial reliable resource to start your journey.

Australia

Australasian Veterinary Board Council Inc

• The AVBC has been specified, in accordance with the Migration Regulations 1994, as the assessing authority for the occupation “Veterinarian” (ANZSCO Code 234711). If your nominated occupation is “veterinarian”, the AVBC is the only relevant assessing authority that can issue you with an assessment of your skills and qualifications to determine if they are suitable for the occupation of veterinarian for migration purposes. AVBC will assess your skills as “suitable” or “not suitable” for your nominated occupation against the requirements it has established.
