What is the longest stay of a tourist visa in New Zealand?

You can stay for 9 months at most. Valid for up to 5 years, it is a multiple-entry visa, not a time limit for each stay.

From May 20 18, the validity of individual tourist visas for China tourists can be extended to five years. A five-year multiple-entry visa generally allows visitors to stay in New Zealand for 65,438+0 months each time, and the stay in any 65,438+08 months cannot exceed 9 months. If they visit New Zealand many times within 18 months, the total stay time can't exceed 9 months.

If tourists intend to stay in New Zealand for more than 65,438+0 months at a time, instead of staying for a short period of five years at a time, the New Zealand Immigration Service may issue entry visas instead of multiple entry visas.

Extended data:

You can apply for a five-year multiple-entry visa through the New Zealand Visa Application Center, and you can start submitting your application by preparing the PDF files of visa materials and passport photos. The application fee for a five-year multiple-entry visa is still 65,438+065 Singapore dollars for online application or 895 yuan for written application.

Immigration New Zealand has launched a UnionPay card service, including credit cards and debit cards. China citizens can use this service to apply for New Zealand visas online, including tourist visits, student and work visas.
