Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL) Search

Search official Core Skills occupation titles and ANZSCO codes, with stream-specific caveats and 186 assessing authorities.

Search occupations by job title or ANZSCO code

Find occupation entries in the official snapshots used for 482 Core Skills and 186 Direct Entry. Switch the pathway to review the relevant occupation caveats and, for 186, the listed assessing authority.

Preliminary guidance only, not a formal migration assessment. Results do not guarantee eligibility, an invitation or visa approval. Evidence, exemptions and your full circumstances must be checked. Answers stay in this page and are not submitted or stored. This list applies to 482 Core Skills and 186 Direct Entry. It is not the occupation list for 189, 190, 491 or 494, and does not establish eligibility for other streams.

How to search the Core Skills occupation list

  1. Enter an occupation title, a broader keyword or an ANZSCO code.
  2. Select 482 Core Skills or 186 Direct Entry to view the relevant details.
  3. Read any caveats and verify the current official instrument before relying on a match.

What an occupation list match means

A matching title does not confirm that your duties, skills or proposed position meet the occupation definition. This search is not the occupation list for subclasses 189, 190, 491 or 494. It uses a dated official snapshot, so amendments and other visa requirements still need checking.
