✽ For Those with In-Demand Expertise
A Direct Pathway to Living in New Zealand
The Straight to Residence Visa offers eligible individuals the opportunity to secure New Zealand residency from the outset — provided they hold an offer of employment in a Green List occupation. This pathway is designed for highly skilled professionals whose expertise aligns with New Zealand’s most sought-after sectors, such as health, engineering, ICT, infrastructure, and more. It allows qualified individuals to apply for residence immediately — whether they’re onshore or offshore.
What You Need to Know ?
While the opportunity is clear, the criteria are specific. It’s not enough for your job title to appear on the Green List — your offer of employment, qualifications, experience, and in some cases, occupational registration, must precisely match the standards required by Immigration New Zealand.
Our advisers work closely with clients to ensure every detail — from role alignment to documentation — is accurate, complete, and strategically presented.
A Note of Caution
The Green List is not a blanket guarantee of residency. Each role is subject to its own eligibility standards, and even minor inconsistencies can lead to declined applications.
If your role does not meet Straight to Residence criteria, you may still qualify through other pathways such as the Skilled Migrant or Work to Residence categories.
