How can entrepreneurs get endorsements for their planned entrepreneur visa during COVID restrictions in Australia?

Would I need to get endorsements before filing for my entrepreneur visa? If so, how would I be able to do that given that Australian borders are closed?

Potential applicants can start the process for a visa application. Depending upon which business and investment visa pathway you are eligible for, and which state/territory you wish to be nominated by then, you may be able to apply at present. My suggestion would be to confirm what visa pathway(s) you are eligible for, confirm the state/territory of interest for you and the process to take will become evident if not now but in time.

It is a requirement that the applicant must obtain endorsements from the state/territory government agency for the Subclass 188 Entrepreneur visa. The first step in the application process is to file their Expression of Interest (EOI) with the Department of Home Affairs and get the EOI number allocated. Then the applicant needs to approach the state/territory government agency for endorsement.
