Family Visas

Being close to family for a short holiday or for a longer more permanent basis is important. The family visa stream consists of numerous visas that may be granted to various relatives of New Zealand citizens and permanent residents.

These visas are generally for people wishing to stay long term and gain residency, but there are also visas for short-term entry. If you are looking for a visa for your partner or spouse, please navigate to our Partner Visa page.
