Your Adventure in Aotearoa Begins Here: Expert Visa Guidance.

Β The New Zealand immigration system, managed by Immigration New Zealand (INZ), is structured with specific criteria for each visa category. Our purpose is to provide clear and effective guidance, ensuring you understand your obligations and submit a thorough application. We help you navigate the requirements to make your dream of living, working, or studying in New Zealand a reality.

Visitor Visa
For individuals who wish to visit New Zealand for a holiday, to see family and friends, or for other short-term purposes. We help you demonstrate that you are a genuine visitor and meet all character and health requirements.
Partnership Visas
This stream allows you to join your partner, who is a New Zealand citizen or resident, in New Zealand. We can assist with both temporary work visas and long-term residence visas based on your partnership
Student Visa
To study full-time in New Zealand for a course that is more than three months long. A key requirement is having an 'offer of place' from a New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) approved education provider.
Work & Skilled Visas
We provide guidance on the primary work visa, the Accredited Employer Work Visa (AEWV), and the points-based Skilled Migrant Category Resident Visa, which is the main pathway to permanent residence for skilled professionals.

We care about each other and the world around us
Where are New Zealand visa applications made?
The vast majority of applications are now made online through the official
Immigration New Zealand (INZ) website. You will need to create a secure account to
complete your forms and upload your documents.
What is an 'offer of place' for a student visa?
An offer of place is the official confirmation letter from your chosen school,
university, or college in New Zealand. It must confirm the course details, dates, and
tuition fees, and it is a mandatory document for your student visa application.
What does an 'Accredited Employer' mean for a work visa?
For New Zealand's main temporary work visa (the AEWV), your employer
must be officially accredited by INZ. This means Immigration New Zealand has
approved them to hire migrants because they have demonstrated sound business practices
and a need for overseas talent.
