How much does it cost to apply for a Temporary Graduate visa in 2026?

The 485 visa application fee rose to AUD $5,750 as of July 2026, up from AUD $4,600 — a significant increase that makes having a clear post-485 PR plan more important than treating it as time to "figure it out."

Key points

  • Fee increased to AUD $5,750 from July 2026.
  • Additional costs apply for dependents included in the application.
  • The visa itself doesn't grant PR — budget for the pathway after it, too.
  • Duration (18 months to 4 years) depends on your qualification level.
