I’m in Australia on a visa – can I volunteer?
Any volunteers who do not have permanent residency in Australia need to ensure they are keeping within the law and abiding by their visa restrictions.
It is important that you make sure that you can legally undertake volunteer work on your particular visa. Generally, if you have the right to work in Australia, you have the right to volunteer.
To check your visa details and conditions online use the Australian Government’s VEVO tool.
