What are VEVO Checks for Business?

While an NCC police check covers an employee's criminal history, a Visa Entitlement Verification Online (VEVO) check protects you against employing people who are not legally entitled to work in Australia.

A VEVO check validates the working entitlements of non-Australian citizens, foreign nationals or people with limited working Visas.

What fines could I face by employing illegal workers?

Penalties are enforced by the Australian Department of Home Affairs and include up to $63,000 and/or five years’ imprisonment per illegal worker and up to $315,000 for bodies corporates.

How do I ensure my employees meet all legal requirements?

A VEVO report includes the Visa provisions for all non-Australian citizens, along with any restrictions.

A VEVO report includes:

  • Which Visa is held and its expiry date.

  • The person's "must not arrive after" date.

  • The person's period of stay and conditions.
