Immigration fraud
Immigration New Zealand doesn’t tolerate immigration fraud because it undermines our immigration system and can lead to the exploitation of vulnerable people.
Fraud, exploitation, and trafficking
Immigration fraud, migrant exploitation and people trafficking are serious offences and we take active steps to combat them.
Migrant exploitation
If you are a migrant worker you have the same rights as New Zealand workers, and it is a crime for employers to exploit you. We can help migrants who are being exploited.
People trafficking
The New Zealand Government is committed to combatting people trafficking domestically, regionally, and internationally.
Non-compliant employers
Employers who receive employment standards-related sanctions will be placed on a list of non-compliant employers and be unable to support visa applications.
