Visitor Visas

Visit New Zealand

Whether you are coming to see family, explore the country, or attend an event, a New Zealand visitor visa gives you up to 9 months in one of the world's most beautiful destinations. We help visitors from India and other countries get their application right, including spouse and family visitor visas.

General Visitor Visa

A visitor visa allows you to stay temporarily in New Zealand without working or studying (beyond 3 months of casual study).

Key Details

  • Stay for up to 9 months
  • Can study for up to 3 months
  • Can include your partner and dependent children (aged 19 and under)
  • Cannot work (unless you hold a separate work visa)

What You Need to Show

  • Sufficient funds to support yourself during your stay
  • A genuine intention to leave New Zealand at the end of your visit
  • Meet health and character requirements
  • Valid passport

Visa Waiver Countries

Citizens of some countries, including India, need to apply for a visitor visa before travelling. We can confirm whether you need to apply or if you qualify for a visa waiver.

Spouse / Partner Visitor Visa

If your partner is living in New Zealand on a temporary visa and you are not yet eligible for a work visa, a Spouse Visitor Visa allows you to stay in New Zealand together while you build towards a longer-term option.

This is one of the more common visa types we assist with, particularly for clients from Punjab whose spouses are already in New Zealand on work or student visas.
