Working holiday visa

A working holiday visa is a residence permit that allows travelers to undertake employment (and sometimes study) in a country that issues the visa to supplement their travel funds. A working holiday visa allows holders to live in a foreign country without securing work sponsorship in advance or joining a university exchange program. Most working holiday visas are offered under reciprocal agreements between certain countries to encourage travel and cultural exchange between their citizens.

In some countries, there is growing criticism of working holiday visas because governments are increasingly linking them to labor strategies rather than centering cultural exchange. This is often achieved by tweaking mobility infrastructure, such as visa rules, to direct working holiday-makers toward specific regions and jobs. Scholars have claimed that these kind of visa programs make immigrants more vulnerable to exploitation and sexual harassment.

There are often several restrictions on this type of visa:
