How to Process New Zealand Work Permits: Step-by-Step

Immigration New Zealand enforces a precise sequential process. Below is the workflow required to successfully secure standard 3-year seasonal and low-skilled authorizations:

Step 1: Employer Accreditation & Job Check

Before hiring internationally, the New Zealand corporate entity must be officially certified as an **Accredited Employer**. The business then undergoes an official **Job Check** with Immigration New Zealand to verify that no suitable local citizens are available for the position.

Step 2: Candidate Match & Token Issuance

Once the Job Check is cleared, the employer sends an authenticated job invitation token directly to the international worker. For low-skilled tracks (such as ANZSCO Level 4 or 5 positions), the applicant must show clean english language testing criteria alongside relevant base skill matches.

Step 3: Visa Application Submission

The applicant submits their structured medical screenings, national character verifications, and verified employment tokens through the INZ portal. Once approved, a secure digital work visa is issued, granting legal entry for up to a 3-year working stay.
