VEVO Check

VEVO Check

Need a VEVO Check to View Your VISA Status?

A VEVO check (Visa Entitlement Verification Online) is essential for Australian employers and organizations to verify visa conditions and work rights for workers in Australia. Commonly referred to as a “right to work check,” it ensures that non-Australian citizens are legally allowed to work in Australia.

Benefits of a VEVO VISA Check

While police checks reveal criminal history, a VEVO check confirms a person’s right to work in Australia, helping employers make informed hiring decisions.

What Does a VEVO Check Show?

• Nature and expiry date of the visa
• “Must not arrive after” date
• Legal conditions and period of stay
• Visa limitations
• Allowed work hours based on visa type

Penalties for Employing Illegal Workers

Employing illegal workers can result in fines up to $315,000 for companies and up to $63,000 or imprisonment for individuals. Ensure compliance by conducting VEVO checks.

Who Needs a VEVO Check?

All non-Australian citizens must undertake a VEVO Check before employment. Australian/New Zealand citizens do not need a VEVO check but must provide proof of citizenship.
