如果您来自免签证国家，则必须获得 NZeTA（新西兰电子旅行授权）才能访问新西兰。您仍然需要满足特定的旅行条件才能获得 NZeTA 资格。

如果您属于以下情况，则必须申请新西兰访客签证：

• 您并非来自免签证国家

• 您计划在新西兰停留超过 3 个月（英国旅客为 6 个月）

即使您原本符合 NZeTA 的资格，某些特定情况也需要您申请访客签证。例如，如果您有：

• 曾入狱 - 您需要获得品格豁免才能继续

• 重大医疗问题 - 在 INZ 授予您访客签证之前，您需要获得健康豁免

• 曾参与犯罪或恐怖主义行为 - 您可能需要特别指示才能说服 INZ 批准您的申请

• 任何国家的驱逐出境记录

请注意，您不需要同时持有 NZeTA 和访客签证；根据您的具体情况，您只需要其中一种。感到困惑是正常的；并非所有情况下的判断都很简单。

 

持访客签证您可以在新西兰停留多久？

新西兰访客签证允许停留 9-18 个月。但是，如果您符合以下条件，您可以申请额外 3 个月的延期（在 24 个月内总共限制为 12 个月）：

• 需要更多时间来完成您的旅行计划

• 由于您无法控制的原因而无法离开该国

• 首次申请新西兰居留权

如果您最近在新西兰停留的总时间已达到 12 个月，则不允许您获得另一个访客签证；您必须离开该国 12 个月后才能再次符合资格。

如果您希望申请 3 个月的延期，INZ 需要看到您在逗留期间没有学习、工作或获得担保。您还需要证明您在访问期间自己承担了经济开销。

​

新西兰访客签证的条款是什么？

INZ 对您的新西兰访客签证设置了特定条件。您可以在 12 个月内学习 3 个月，但您不能持访客签证工作。

如果您计划在访客签证有效期内多次出入新西兰，请确保您满足多次入境旅行的要求。

持新西兰访客签证，您可以：

• 将您的伴侣和受抚养子女（未满 19 岁）包含在您的签证申请中

• 探访亲友，探索该国的风景，参加业余体育运动和进行冒险爱好。

除非您的签证上注明“无需返程/续程机票”，否则您需要以下条件才能进行后续旅程：

• 一位同意支付您从新西兰到您希望前往国家的机票的担保人 - 如果您被授权进入该国，或者

• 前往其他国家的有效旅行证件和有效机票

​

获得新西兰访客签证的时间需要多久？

新西兰访客签证申请的典型处理时间为 12-30 天。但是，INZ 会根据您所属的国家/地区应用不同的政策和程序。此外，未以规定的格式提交正确的信息可能会导致进一步的延误。

所有新西兰访客签证申请都必须附有医疗证明和警方证明的英文翻译。我们的移民顾问在确保您不会因提交所需的支持信息时出错而遭受访客签证的延误或拒签方面拥有丰富的经验。

You must get an NZeTA (New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority) authorization to visit New Zealand if you are from a visa waiver country. You will still need to satisfy specific conditions for your travel to qualify for an NZeTA.

You must procure a New Zealand Visitor Visa if you:

• Are not from a visa-waiver nation

• Plan on spending more than 3 months in New Zealand (6 months for UK travelers)

Even if you would have otherwise qualified for an NZeTA, specific conditions will require getting a Visitor Visa. For instance, if you have:

• Been to prison in the past - you will need a Character Waiver to proceed

• Significant medical problems - you will need a Health Waiver before INZ grants you a visitor visa

• Had a history of engaging in criminal or terrorist acts - you may need aSpecial Direction to persuade INZ to approve your application

• Deportation history from any country

Note that you do not need both an NZeTA and a Visitor Visa; you need just one of them based on your situation. It is okay to be confused; the determination is not straightforward in all cases.

​How long can you stay in New Zealand on a Visitor Visa?

New Zealand Visitor Visa allows for a stay of 9-18 months. You may, however, request another 3 months (there is a limit of 12 months in 24 months), if you:

• Need additional time to wrap-up your travel plan

• Cannot leave the country due to reasons not under your control

• Have applied for New Zealand residency for the first time

You are not allowed to obtain another visitor visa if you have recently spent a total of 12 months in New Zealand; you must stay out of the country for 12 months before you become eligible again.

If you wish to apply for an extension of 3 months, INZ will need to see that you did not study, work or get sponsorship during your stay. You will also need to prove that you took care of your financial expenses on your own during your visit.

​What are the terms of New Zealand Visitor Visa?

INZ places specific conditions on your New Zealand Visitor Visa. You can study for 3 months in a 12-month period, but you cannot work on a Visitor Visa.

Make sure you satisfy multiple-entry travel requirements if you plan on entering/leaving New Zealand more than once during your visitor visa term.

On an NZ visitor visa, you can:

• Include your partner and dependent children (less than 19 years of age) in your visa application

• Visit friends and family, explore the country’s landscapes, participate in amateur sports and engage in adventure hobbies.

Unless your Visa says "Return/onward travel not required," you will need the following to make an onward journey:

• A sponsor who is agreeing to pay for your ticket from New Zealand to the country you wish to go to – if you are authorized to enter that country, or

• Proper travel documents and valid ticket to visit the other country
