Migration SA: DAMA Extension Until September 2026



South Australia’s two Designated Area Migration Agreements (DAMAs) have been extended for three months until 30 September 2026, while negotiations conclude for a new five-year statewide DAMA. The current terms and conditions of both DAMAs remain unchanged since the last variation in June 2025.

Whilst a formal announcement has not been issued by the Department of Home Affairs, it is important to note that the TSMIT will change on 1 July 2026. Please be aware of this when conducting Labour Market Testing for a position under the South Australian DAMA.

Further announcements on the new five-year DAMA will be made once negotiations have concluded.
