Working Holiday Visa
Immigration New Zealand offers a working holiday scheme for citizens of select countries. This scheme allows you to come, travel, and work here in New Zealand.
Your primary intent with availing this visa should be exploration of New Zealand with work being a secondary intent. Please remember that this visa is for you to explore the country holistically and support your expenses while you are here.
Eligibility and Criteria
If you are aged between 18- 30 or 18-35 in some cases, you are eligible to apply for this visa. You can explore New Zealand and work here for 12 months or 23 months in case you are from Canada or the UK. In case you are applying for a 23-month visa, you are required to submit a general medical certificate. You should also have enough money for a return ticket, and you should focus your energies on holidaying more than work.
