With a New Zealand visit visa, you can come to New Zealand for reasons such as holidays, sightseeing, social or recreational reasons, to visit relatives, friends, to be a business visitor or for other short-term non-work things like medical treatment or medical consultations. Or New Zealand visit visa can help you just be passing through on your way to somewhere else
There are various types of visas available for visiting New Zealand.
The type of visa that you may be able to get depends on a number of factors such as, the length of your stay, your passport, your current location and the purpose of your visit.
It depends on your passport, not your residence. UAE passport holders travel visa-waiver and request an NZeTA online before flying — a waiver in place since 2024 (immigration.govt.nz). Indian, Pakistani, Sri Lankan and Filipino passport holders living in the UAE need a full visitor visa, with funds, ties and itinerary evidence. We prepare both — ask us on WhatsApp.
