Living and working overseas
The Smart Traveller website, produced by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), provides essential information for Australians living and working overseas.
At any one time there are approximately 900,000 Australians living and working overseas. Australians working overseas find themselves in countries where cultural, economic and social differences will have a direct impact on their personal lives, working conditions and job satisfaction.
The Smart Traveller website is designed to provide Australian expatriates with guidance and information about issues to consider when taking up foreign residence.
