Leaving New Zealand

Want to know whether you can travel in and out of New Zealand while on a work visa?  And what happens when your visa expires?
  • What happens when I reach the maximum time on my visa?

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

  • I’m well within the time allowed by my temporary work visa but I need to leave New Zealand for a short time and come back

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