🛂 Student Visa & Work Opportunities

New Zealand’s immigration framework is among the most flexible and transparent for international students.

  • Post-Study Work Visa (PSWV): Allows graduates to stay and work for up to 3 years after completing a Level 7+ qualification.
  • Fast Visa Processing: Average processing time has dropped to 10–12 days (2025) from 24 days in 2024.
