Work Permits
Short-term work permits give people the opportunity to explore New Zealand’s lifestyle and employment opportunities first hand, and secure an offer of skilled employment.
This New Zealand work experience could later count towards points under the skilled migrant category.
Work permits can be granted to workers from overseas to meet particular or seasonal worker shortages that cannot be met from within New Zealand.
New Zealand also has working holiday schemes for several countries.
