If you’re considering relocating to NZ, new options under Skilled Migrant Residence could soon work for you.

From mid-2026, you might ultimately qualify with a sub-degree trade qualification, or with 5 years’ work experience, some of it on a Work Visa in NZ.

The NZ Active Investor Plus (“AIP”) Residence Visa has been very popular. Still, some of the rules are not as simple as they look.

The NZ Business Investor Visa is all about the FIVES.

Buy a business which has been running for 5 years, with at least 5 employees. And you must have English of IELTS 5.0 or equivalent if you aren’t from a “native English speaking” background, or else have a suitable University degree.

We now have the detailed rules for the NZ Business Investor Visa.

You can get a Work Visa, leading to Residence, by buying into an existing business with a minimum of NZ$1 million.

Applications open end November. Book a call or email us at Laurent Law if you’re interested.
