Leaving New Zealand

Want to know whether you can travel in and out of New Zealand while you study or what happens if you aren’t ready to leave when your student visa expires?

  • What happens when I reach the expiry date of my student visa?

  • I was granted a limited visa rather than a student visa. Can I change this to another visa?

  • I’ve yet to finish my study period in New Zealand but I need to temporarily leave and come back.

  • I've completed my studies but I want to stay in New Zealand so I can attend my graduation ceremony. Can I stay?

  • I’m unable to leave New Zealand before my student visa expires. What do I do?

  • I had to pay a bond when I arrived. When will I get this back?
