Manufacturer
Other Professionals
Visa options for Manufacturer are set out below. Manufacturer is not currently listed on the Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL).
Manufacturer is not on the Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL) published by the Department of Home Affairs, so the Subclass 482 Core Skills stream and the 186 Direct Entry stream are not open on this title. It is on the STSOL, which the Department lists for the 190, 491, 494; the pathways below set out what that supports.

Subclass 494
Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional)
Manufacturer is on the 494 list under ANZSCO 2013 code 133411; a regional employer nominates, and the Subclass 191 permanent visa follows after 3 years without an occupation list of its own.
Subclass 190
Skilled Nominated
Manufacturer is on the STSOL, so a state or territory can nominate it; each state's own list decides whether it does.
Subclass 491
Skilled Work Regional (Provisional)
State or territory nomination for Manufacturer on the STSOL; family sponsorship applies to MLTSSL occupations only.
Not available for Manufacturer: 482 Core Skills stream and 186 Direct Entry (not on the CSOL); 189 (not on the MLTSSL). A 186 Temporary Residence Transition nomination needs a 482 already held as Manufacturer, which off the CSOL means a labour agreement or DAMA rather than the Core Skills stream.
How each visa works: 482, 186, 494, 189, 190, 491, DAMA and skills assessment. Lists: Department of Home Affairs.

Skills assessment requirements and visa eligibility are set per occupation, and a neighbouring classification in the Other Professionals group can carry a different CSOL status or assessing authority than Manufacturer.
