New Zealand Temporary Work Visas

If you do not wish to settle in the country you can apply for a temporary work permit for New Zealand. This type of visa is broken up into several categories and lasts between nine months and three years. If you have an offer of work, you can apply for an Essential Skills New Zealand work permit, (lasting up to three years), as long as your employers can prove they could not source workers locally. If you are between 20 and 35 and from a skilled profession then you can apply for a Silver Fern Job Search Visa. This working visa for New Zealand entitles the holder to remain living in New Zealand for up to nine months while they are searching for a job. Once they have an offer, the holder can then apply for a working visa for New Zealand which lasts up to two years. Start applying now by taking the free assessment.
