REPLY:

To work in Australia as a nurse, you must be registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia and meet the Board’s registration standards.
You might also need to complete a skills assessment from the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Council.

Immigration to Australia

The Australian Nursing and Midwifery Accreditation Council (ANMAC) is an independent organisation gazetted by the Minister for Immigration (pursuant to the Migration Act 1958, Regulations Amendment 1999, 2.228) to perform skills assessment for migration purposes. ANMAC assesses the skills of internationally qualified nurses and midwives who want to migrate to Australia under the General Skilled Migration program – see International services on the ANMAC website.
Important note:
We advise that you do not make any irreversible decisions - such as resigning from current employment or moving to Australia - until you have applied for and been approved for registration with the NMBA. The timeframe to process your application for registration depends on the unique circumstances of your application.
More information on visa applications, including skills assessments and assessing authorities is available on the Australian Department of Immigration and Border Protection website.

Registration and employment as a nurse or midwife in Australia

The Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) assesses applications for registration from internationally qualified nurses and midwives on behalf of the NMBA. The NMBA is governed by the Health Practitioner Regulation National Law as in force in each state and territory and is responsible for the final decision on each application.
International applicants must meet the registration standards and qualification criteria in order to be eligible for registration.

Internationally qualified nurse practitioners

If you are an internationally qualified nurse practitioner and interested in working in Australia as a nurse practitioner you need to first apply for and obtain registration as a registered nurse with the NMBA. Then, to be recognised and be able to practice as a nurse practitioner in Australia you must become ‘endorsed’ by the NMBA under the National Law as a nurse practitioner. There are further requirements set by the NMBA that you must meet to become endorsed as a nurse practitioner.

Difference between ANMAC (immigration) and NMBA (registration) assessments

ANMAC takes into consideration work experience in assessing an applicant’s qualifications, which is then used to determine suitability for skilled migration. Under the National Law, the NMBA can only take into account an applicant’s qualifications when establishing whether their qualifications are substantially equivalent to an Australian qualification. This is why some applicants may be approved for skilled migration but do not meet the registration requirements of the NMBA.

Employment

Neither AHPRA nor the NMBA are involved in employment matters and we are therefore unable to assist you in seeking employment or influencing employment outcomes. However, it is important to be aware that any health practitioner must hold registration with the relevant National Board prior to taking up employment in Australia in their profession. We recommend that you do not apply for work until your registration eligibility is confirmed.
