are usually issued with a permit at the border.
Visa-free countries
You can travel to New Zealand without a visa if
you are from a country on our list of visa-free
countries. You will need to apply for a student

have found an educational institute. See our
website www.immigration.govt.nz for the list of
visa-free countries.

A student visa allows you to travel to the
New Zealand border. When you arrive in
New Zealand an immigration officer will check
that you meet all the requirements to be granted
a permit to study in New Zealand.

in New Zealand for a limited period of time.
