{{short description|Form of residence permit}} {{redirect|Working holiday|the album and music festival|Working Holiday!}} {{Multiple issues| {{cite check|date=March 2025}} {{copy edit|date=August 2025}} {{update|date=August 2025}} }} A '''working holiday visa''' is a residence permit that allows travelers to undertake employment (and sometimes study) in the 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 an expensive university exchange program. Working holidays are commonly mentioned in backpacker literature because the groups share some similarities.<ref>[https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14616688.2024.2417858 Iaquinto (2024)]</ref> 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 around 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 holidaymakers toward specific regions and jobs. This often increases working holiday makers' precarity,<ref>[https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14616688.2024.2366488 James (2024)]</ref> which can make them more vulnerable to harms such as exploitation and sexual harassment.<ref>[https://bristoluniversitypressdigital.com/display/book/9781529222036/ch081.xml Working Tourists - Donna James (2024)]</ref>
There are often several restrictions on this type of visa: * Many are intended for young travelers and, as such, have an age restriction (usually from 18 to 30 or 35). * There are usually limits on the type of employment taken or the time the traveler can be employed. * The visa holder is expected to have sufficient funds to live on while seeking employment. * The visa holder should have some health or travel insurance for the duration of the stay unless the country will cover it. {{horizontal TOC}}
