To work as a truck driver in Australia, consider applying for a Skilled Independent Visa (Subclass 189) or explore options like Skilled Nominated (Subclass 190) or Working Holiday Visa (Subclass 417). Given your profession, you'd likely qualify under the Skilled Occupation List. Next steps: Get your truck driving skills assessed, usually needing at least 3 years of full-time experience. Check the requirements for obtaining an Australian heavy rigid truck driving license; your Italian license is good for 3 months but for the long haul, you'll need to ace some tests. Once you've got your visa and Aussie license, hit up sites like Truck Jobs Australia for job hunting. Securing offers before arrival can boost your visa application. Don't forget the health exams, police clearance, and English tests—it's all part of the journey. Best of luck on your Aussie adventure!

Hi there, Skilled Truck Drivers have become a significant concern in Australia and are actually in very high demand too. Several Visa options are available for overseas truck drivers. However, you should note that each visa has a specific restriction on the kind of work, level, or location where you will perform your job. As an overseas applicant, you should obtain a positive skills assessment that shows you have the equivalent Australian truck driving training and qualifications to work in this role. You will need to have the appropriate license level for the State or Territory to drive certain vehicles. A state-issued truck and heavy vehicle license along with a medical examination is required to become a truck driver in Australia. In Australia, Certificate III or IV in Driving Operations at TAFE or a local RTO is might helpful for you too. After you meet all the requirements then you can decide what visa is fit for you along with finding the sponsor or employer in Australia from the job ads website. For more information about your visa inquiry and assessment, you may contact us at [email protected] or WhatsApp at +61 414 713 704 Thank you and have a good day.
