For an Anatomist Emigrating to Australia
Welcome to our guide on the Australian skills assessment process for an Anatomist. Before we examine the skills required to be recognised as an Anatomist it may be helpful to explain that the skills assessment is the first step of the emigration process. The skills Assessment of an Anatomist determines their eligibility to emigrate and the visa options available. Ultimately, it will affect their employment opportunities once they are in Australia.
While we appreciate that each case is unique, we always strive to secure the best possible outcome from the Skills Assessing Authorities in Australia. Experience has proven that efforts and expertise in this area are often the keys to a successful case.
Ensuring Anatomists Are In High Demand
Every skilled migrant wants to know they will be able to secure a job quickly and easily when they are in Australia. The Australian emigration system ensures that they can.
Each year, State Governments and the two territorial Governments report to the federal government on their local demand for Anatomists and if they need to bring in Anatomists from overseas to fill any potential shortage skills gaps. This report states the number of overseas an Anatomists required in the coming year to fill the skills gap within each region.
The Skills in demand are then broken down into priority lists. These lists range from those skills in high demand across the country to those skills with only limited demand within rural areas.
Curently, Anatomists are on the MLTSSL list. Being on this list means an Anatomist may qualify for one of the following visa streams:
- 186, 189 (PT), 190, 407, 485 (GW),491 (F), 491 (S/T), TSS (M), 494

Navigating the Trades Recognition Australia Skills Assessment Process
For Anatomists, the skills assessing body is “Trades Recognition Australia” they are often referred to as the TRA. To visit their site, follow the link: https://tradesrecognitionaustralia.gov.au
It is important to note that the primary purpose of the Trades Recognition Australia is to make a profit and protect their current members from migrants entering Australia, taking their members’ jobs, and driving down standards or wages.
Therefore, the TRA will often look to delay, frustrate and reject cases, preventing accreditations wherever possible, with those aims in mind.
The result of a candidate’s skills assessment is often a key factor in their success. It is vital that we secure the highest possible skills accreditation.

Emigration law is one of the most complex areas of legislation and is continuously being adapted. By definition, emigrating to Australia is a legal process where the individual must prove their case. It is not down to the government to assist in that process. In fact, in legal terms, it is the government against whom we must win our case.
