LGBTIQ+ Partner Visa Australia

We help same-sex couples begin their journey together

Navigating the complexities of Australia's visa system can be challenging, especially for same-sex couples. The LGBTIQ+ Partner Visa allows same-sex partners of Australian citizens, permanent residents, or eligible New Zealand citizens to apply for residency in Australia. This visa ensures that couples, regardless of their sexual orientation, have the same rights and opportunities to live together in Australia.

What is a same-sex partner visa?

A same-sex partner visa allows individuals in a committed relationship with an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen to live together in Australia. It applies to both married and de facto same-sex couples, providing a pathway for partners to build their lives in Australia without discrimination based on sexual orientation. This visa is part of Australia’s inclusive migration system, ensuring that same-sex couples have equal access to immigration opportunities.

For same-sex couples seeking long-term residency in Australia, the LGBTIQ+ partner visa offers a solid foundation. Once granted the permanent partner visa, individuals may later apply for Australian citizenship after meeting residency requirements. In addition to the partner visa, other pathways, such as the prospective marriage visa (subclass 300), are available for engaged but not yet married couples, allowing the applicant to come to Australia to marry their partner and apply for a partner visa thereafter. These pathways provide flexibility depending on your relationship status and future plans.
