🇳🇿 WHAT IS THE NEW ZEALAND WORK VISA?
The main pathway for foreign applicants is the Accredited Employer Work Visa (AEWV)—a visa that allows you to work for a New Zealand employer who has government accreditation and has offered you a job that matches your skills.
This is the gateway.
Everything you do must align with this core requirement.

🧭 STEP-BY-STEP NEW ZEALAND WORK VISA GUIDE
1️⃣ Find a Job With an Accredited Employer
The visa starts before the application.
You must secure a job with an employer approved by New Zealand Immigration.
Look for:
✔ Job listings labelled “AEWV Accredited Employer”
✔ Employers willing to give a Job Offer Letter
✔ Roles matching your work experience or qualifications
Important:
New Zealand employers rarely hire without skill relevance. Strengthen your CV before applying.
---
2️⃣ Prepare the Required Documents
This is where many applicants fail—not because they lack skills, but because they lack correct documentation.
You’ll need:
📝 Identity & Travel Documents
Valid passport (6+ months validity)
Passport-size photos (recent)
🎓 Skills & Work Experience Proof
Updated CV (New Zealand format preferred)
Employment certificates
Reference letters
Professional portfolio (if applicable)
📚 Qualifications
Degrees, diplomas, trade certificates
Translations if not in English
NZQA assessment (if required for your job sector)
🩺 Health & Medical Requirements
Full medical examination
Chest X-ray (for certain countries)
All tests must be from panel physicians approved by New Zealand Immigration
👮 Police Clearance
Police certificate from every country you've lived in for 5+ years
Must be recent and verifiable
💼 Job Offer Documents
Signed employment contract
Job description
Employer’s accreditation details
Pay rate (must meet wage threshold for your occupation)
---
3️⃣ Check Salary & Skill Requirements
New Zealand enforces strict salary minimums depending on your occupation.
You must meet:
✔ The AEWV wage threshold
✔ The occupation-specific median pay
✔ The skill experience requirements defined under ANZSCO (if applicable)
If your pay is lower than the threshold → visa declines automatically.
---
4️⃣ Your Employer Must Submit a Job Check Approval
Before you apply, your employer needs to pass the Job Check, proving that:
The job is genuine
They cannot easily find a local worker
They are paying standard wages
Without job check approval, your application cannot start.
---
5️⃣ Submit Your Work Visa Application Online
You will apply on the New Zealand Immigration portal.
You must upload:
✔ All documents
✔ Medicals
✔ Police reports
✔ Job offer
✔ Job check number from employer
✔ Proof of qualifications and work history
You will pay the visa fee online.
---
6️⃣ Wait for Processing & Verification
Processing time varies, but expect:
⏳ 2–8 weeks depending on volume and complexity
⏳ Additional weeks if Immigration needs more documents
⏳ Verification calls to your employer or past employers
Stay reachable.
Check your email often.
---
7️⃣ If Approved — Receive Your Visa Grant
Your visa will specify:
Employer name
Job title
Work rights
Duration of stay
Conditions (location, job role, changes)
You must follow all visa conditions strictly.
---
⚠️ COMMON REASONS FOR VISA REFUSAL
Many applicants don’t know these until it’s too late:
❌ Fake or unverifiable documents
❌ Employer not accredited
❌ Salary below threshold
❌ Skills not matching job
❌ Wrong or outdated medicals
❌ Incomplete submissions
❌ Inconsistent employment history
Your preparation determines your success.
---
📌 SPECIAL NOTE FOR INTERNET APPLICANTS
If you're applying online from abroad, avoid:
Agents promising “guaranteed jobs”
Unknown employers with unverifiable accreditation
Paying recruitment fees to employers (illegal in NZ)
Submitting unverifiable employment documents
Always cross-check everything.
