Immigration New Zealand have announced some significant increases in their visa processing fees, that will come into play from 1st October 2024.
The rationale behind the fee increases are that they want to ensure that those using and benefitting from the NZ immigration system contribute more to the cost of running it, including visa processing, risk management, and compliance activities, and to reduce the New Zealand taxpayer contribution to the immigration system.
Some increases to note are:
- Family Resident Visas increasing from $3610 to $5360 (this includes the Partner of a New Zealander Resident Visa and Parent Resident Visa)
- Skilled Resident Visas increasing from $4890 to $6450
- Accredited Employer Work Visas increasing from $750 to $1540
- Partner of a New Zealander Work Visas increasing from $860 to $1630
- Partner of a Worker Work Visas increasing from $700 to $1355
