Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Travel Consultant
Document your degree's field equivalency
Australian three-year bachelor's degrees are accepted as equivalent to U.S. four-year degrees for E-3 purposes, but you'll need a credential evaluation letter confirming your tourism or hospitality qualification meets the specialty occupation standard.
Target employers with corporate travel divisions
Large consulting firms, multinational corporations, and global travel management companies file LCAs regularly for travel consultant roles. Searching DOL's FLAG portal by job title filters to employers already familiar with the specialty occupation requirement.
Use Migrate Mate to search E-3 sponsorship roles
Finding travel consultant positions where employers will actively support E-3 sponsorship narrows the field significantly. Migrate Mate surfaces roles from employers with E-3 and LCA filing history, so you're not cold-applying to companies unfamiliar with the process.
Frame your role as a specialty occupation
Generic travel agent roles can struggle to meet the specialty occupation definition. Emphasize functions requiring specialized knowledge, such as itinerary design for corporate clients, GDS platform expertise, or international risk management, to strengthen the LCA narrative.
Confirm the LCA reflects your actual worksite
If your travel consultant role involves remote work or frequent client-site assignments, the LCA must list the correct prevailing wage for each worksite location. USCIS scrutinizes worksite mismatches, so clarify your work arrangement with the employer before filing.
Manage your consulate appointment timeline carefully
The LCA must be certified by DOL before your employer can finalize the visa support letter. Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork so your consulate appointment in Sydney, Melbourne, or Perth isn't delayed by avoidable filing errors.

Find Travel Consultant JobsTravel Consultant E-3 Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Travel Consultant jobs that offer E-3 visa sponsorship?
Most travel consultant job postings don't advertise E-3 sponsorship directly, so searching by employer filing history is more effective than filtering by visa type. Migrate Mate lists travel consultant roles from employers with documented LCA and E-3 filing activity, which removes the guesswork of identifying sponsorship-willing companies before you apply.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Travel Consultant role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
It depends on how the role is defined. A travel consultant position requiring a bachelor's degree in tourism, hospitality, business, or international studies qualifies. Roles described as general sales or customer service, where any degree or no degree is acceptable, are harder to qualify. Your employer's job description and the LCA filing need to reflect the degree requirement explicitly.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Travel Consultant roles?
The E-3 has no lottery and no annual cap, so you can apply as soon as you have a job offer and a certified LCA, any time of year. The H-1B has an 85,000-slot annual cap with a registration lottery, meaning most applicants wait months for a result and may not be selected at all. For Australian travel professionals, the E-3 is a significantly more reliable path.
Can I change employers after starting a Travel Consultant role on an E-3?
Yes, but the E-3 is employer-specific, so your new employer must file a fresh LCA and you'll need to obtain a new E-3 visa stamp before returning to the U.S., or file a change of status if you're already inside the country. There's no portability provision equivalent to the H-1B's AC21 rule, so plan the transition timeline with your new employer before resigning.
