Currently in United Kingdom, IELTS requirement of 7.5 in all sections of the academic test is the main barrier to become Barrister even if you get higher second class or first class at LL.B.(Hons). Moreover no one can guarantee you offer to Bar Professional Training Course notwithstanding you have good academic results. In addition, Students without rights of employment and residency in the UK may not practice in the UK and it is not easy to get rights of employment and residence permit with contemporary foreign policy. Whereas in New Zealand you will not have to face such language barriers if you have completed your law graduation from United Kingdom. Law courses to become Barrister in New Zealand will facilitate you through allowing you to practice as Barrister in both New Zealand and Bangladesh. In a similar way, IELTS requirement of 8 is the major barrier to become Barrister in Australia. In Australia, practicing certificates are issued by the relevant professional body in each Australian State or Territory, and this involve a period of restricted practice (involving up to 24 months of supervision under a senior legal practitioner) or further requirements, depending on the State or Territory. Continuing legal education to a specified level over a 12 month period is a requirement for renewal of practicing certificates in most jurisdictions in Australia. These reasons make students less interested to become Barrister in Australia. Whereas becoming Barrister in New Zealand is much more easier than Australia. Above all, New Zealand lawyers can be admitted to practice in all states and territories of Australia under the Trans-Tasman mutual recognition regime. That regime offers a fast-track process, just as it does for Australian practitioners seeking admission here.
