Immigration Compliance & Legal Risk

Our team ensures your business remains compliant throughout the sponsorship period and beyond. In Australia, sponsors must meet a range of obligations including: maintaining records, reporting changes, ensuring employees work in the approved role, and covering certain travel and removal costs. They must also avoid passing visa costs onto employees and provide training for local staff. In New Zealand, we help employers comply with the Accredited Employer Work Visa (AEWV) scheme, where non-compliance can result in:

  • Loss of accredited employer status
  • Stand-down periods and restrictions
  • Financial penalties or infringement notices
  • Legal prosecution and disqualification from future sponsorship
  • Reputational damage affecting local and global recruitment

Why Compliance Matters?

Staying compliant is more than a legal requirement—it’s a sign of ethical business practice and respect for your workforce. Our experienced legal team works closely with your business to create efficient, compliant processes that minimise risk and ensure you meet your obligations under Australian and New Zealand immigration laws. With our ongoing support, you’ll be free to focus on business growth while we manage the regulatory details.
