Work & Holiday visa · subclass 462

Specified work postcode checker

Type an Australian postcode to see which kinds of specified work in that area count toward a second or third Work and Holiday (subclass 462) visa.

Postcode

Northern Territory postcodes start with 0 — type all 4 digits (e.g. 0870).

How the requirement works

Second 462 visa: at least 3 months (88 calendar days) of specified work completed while holding your first 462 visa.
Third 462 visa: at least 6 months (179 calendar days) of specified work completed on your second 462 visa, on or after 1 July 2019.
Work must be paid in line with Australian awards and legislation. Only bushfire and natural disaster recovery work may be voluntary.
Eligibility depends on both the industry and the postcode — the same postcode can qualify for one industry and not another.
Postcode ranges shown here were taken from the official Home Affairs page (last updated 7 May 2026). Always confirm against the official page before relying on it.
