Regional Australia Postcode List
The table below lists all postcodes classified as part of regional Australia for specified work.
To meet the three month specified work requirement for a second Working Holiday visa, work must be completed in an area whose postcode is included in the list.
Specified work completed in areas that do not fit within the definition of regional Australia cannot be counted towards the requirement.
Specified work must actually be done within an eligible regional Australia postcode area. Work that is completed in a non-eligible postcode area for an employer, whose office or post office box is in a regional Australia postcode area, does not meet the requirement.
Note: Not all postcodes in the Hunter Valley fit within the definition of regional Australia.
