NOC - Company has no objection for you to join another company. But they will cancel your RP / Work Visa. You have to go home and the new company should send you a new visa. You can come back as soon as you get a new visa from the new company.

Release - With your NOC in hand, with a release you can join the new company without having to exit the country.

If a company has brought you from Australia on an engineer's visa, they will lose that visa from their quota if they give you a release and your sponsorship is transferred.

If they cancel your RP, they get that visa back in their quota of visas.

A release is pretty useless without an NOC. It just means you can go home.
