Want to visit family, friends or spend a holiday in New Zealand?

People travelling from certain countries are not required to have a Visitor Visa in order to travel to New Zealand. As for the countries who do have this requirement, the traveller needs to apply for an entry visa called a Visitor Visa, before coming to New Zealand. Once this visa is issued, then on arrival at the airport a Visitor Permit will be usually granted and stamped in the passport. Visitors who would like to stay longer need to make a new application. When a further permit is granted it will normally allow a stay for up to nine months.
