Application: Renewal of Tourist Visa According to the regulations of the Immigration Bureau, the cumulative stay of ordinary tourist visa holders in New Zealand should not exceed 9 months (18 months), and in special circumstances, it should not exceed 12 months.

For the applicants we are involved in today, almost all of them started to enter New Zealand in early 2020 and experienced two automatic extensions of tourist visas, at least 12 months. The reason why the Immigration Bureau automatically extended their visas is that these people may be given a longer validity period because of the inevitable delay or cancellation of return flights from various countries, so that they have more time to complete their return plans.

Will the Immigration Bureau consider automatically renewing the tourist visa on the upcoming visa expiration date? In this case, the feasibility of renewing the contract is not optimistic (after all, it has been postponed twice ~ ~). If the applicant wants to continue to apply for a tourist visa before the expiration date? There need to be sufficient reasons to persuade the Immigration Bureau to grant Amnesty.
