I am working in a mid-sized company in India that does not have a registered office in Australia. My company has customers in Australia. My customer is ready to sponsor my visa. What are the options for me? Can my company in India send me to Australia for work on a 457 visa?

Dear Friend,
Why has your company not sent you to Australia? Is there a specific clause in your appointment that prohibits overseas assignments?
If your employer's business requires you to be sent anywhere in our country or abroad, the company should be able to do so, in my opinion. However, the company should compensate appropriately for any disruption to your personal, family, and social life.
The 457 visa is a Temporary Work Visa (Subclass 457). In Australia, the 457 visa was commonly used by Australian or overseas employers to sponsor skilled overseas workers for temporary work in Australia. This visa has now been abolished and replaced with the entirely new Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa as of March 2018.
It is important for you to familiarize yourself with the TSS visa.
If you refuse to go, your employer may need to consider finding someone else for the position, potentially leading to your role being deemed redundant. Please take this into consideration.
Kind regards, [Your Name]

Thanks a lot, Korgaonkar. Please help me with the below clarifications to get a better understanding.
1. Can my company send me under TSS VISA to the office of their client in Australia even though my company is not present in Australia?
2. Is there any restriction on who should sponsor? Employer in India or client in Australia?
3. Do we need to give IELTS or any other English exam for this?
Thanks once again!

(Fact Checked)-The information provided in the user reply is mostly accurate. However, it should be noted that the Temporary Work Visa (Subclass 457) in Australia has been abolished and replaced by the Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa. The user is correct in advising to study the TSS visa for current regulations. (1 Acknowledge point)
