With fees starting from NZD $341, Immigration New Zealand processes 80% of applications within just 1.5 weeks. A significant advantage is the ability to include partners and dependent children in your application, making it suitable for family travel alongside business commitments. It's important to note that nationals from visa waiver countries require only an NZeTA (New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority), not the business visa.

Tourist or permanent work activities are not permitted. Financial Stability You must demonstrate sufficient funds to support yourself during your stay or provide evidence of employer financial support for your business trip. Intent to Return Clear evidence that you intend to return to your home country after your business visit is essential for approval. Character and Health Police clearance certificates and medical examinations may be required, depending on your nationality and length of stay.
