A New Zealand visa, sometimes known as a “visitor’s visa” for New Zealand, is a piece of paper that you keep in your passport and use to enter or reenter the country. The visa is a legitimate authorization to enter New Zealand for travel, business, or transit.

Any Indian who is neither a citizen of New Zealand nor a permanent resident of that country needs a visa to enter that country. In addition, visitors passing through New Zealand on their way somewhere else must also have a visiting visa.

A New Zealand visa can be requested up to three months before the intended travel date.

The most prolonged stay permitted on a visiting visa is nine months. The visa is typically good for three months but occasionally extends to six months. Multiple-entry visitor visas with a three-year maximum validity can be awarded to business people who often visit New Zealand for business purposes. However, the embassy has the last say about the validity of the visa.

The original airline ticket is optional to be supplied with the visa application. However, we would need a copy of your actual ticket if you wanted to apply for a transit visa.
