Does New Zealand need to be naturalized after immigration?

Many people will choose to live in New Zealand, so do New Zealand immigrants need naturalization? This is a question that many people who go abroad are interested in. Let's take a look at it with the overseas immigration network! The following is the relevant information I have compiled. Welcome to reading.

Does New Zealand need to be naturalized after immigration?

It is a question whether to choose the blue (New Zealand passport) or the red (China passport). With the increasing number of immigrants from China to New Zealand, whether to choose to naturalize in New Zealand has become a tangled matter for many people. The gold content of China passport is gradually increasing, but it seems more convenient to have a trip around the world. Here are some accounts of New Zealand immigrants for your reference.

According to statistics, among those who meet the requirements of becoming New Zealand citizens, 39% have changed their nationality, 42% have not changed their nationality, and 19% have no clear idea and wait and see between change and unchanging. Given that the gold content of China passports is getting higher and higher, why do quite a few people still want to change their nationality?

Ambiguous school

Student AAB: I just became a New Zealand citizen. Unfortunately, I can only stay in China for one month on a tourist visa. Although it can go back and forth many times, it is really troublesome. Of course, if you decide to settle abroad and occasionally return to China for a short stay to visit relatives, a New Zealand passport will be very convenient. If you are not sure, don't change it. Permanent residence in New Zealand is also very good, and you don't need to apply for a visa at both ends.

Adida, an employee of the company: The advantage of retaining China nationality is that you can return to China at any time without a visa. You can buy a house at any time as long as you have enough money. If you work as a citizen of China, the income tax threshold is low; If you are a foreigner, the threshold will be higher. If you change your nationality, it will be more troublesome to buy a house in China. In other words, don't go back to China unless you buy a house. There is no place to live.

Company employee Li Jing: I think the New Zealand passport is very useful, but I want to go back to China for development and settlement in a few years. At present, it is only for the convenience of going abroad. I'm worried that if I change my passport, I will lose my China identity, and the police station may cancel my account. Do I have to pay more taxes? Can I still work, buy a house and enjoy old-age insurance and provident fund in China like China people? So, these are the reasons why I hesitate. Let's wait for another two years. After all, I still have a chance after I am not a New Zealand citizen. If you are naturalized, it is impossible to change back to China citizenship!

DNA, Teacher: Changing nationality has advantages and disadvantages. I have held a New Zealand passport for many years. Write an invitation letter from my brother every time I return to China. Without his letter, I can't get a visa to visit my father. My son still holds a China passport. As a result, the school organized a scientific trip to Europe this year, which made him fully realize how inconvenient China passport is. In a short three-week trip, he will go to Wellington to apply for a Schengen visa in France, as well as a British visa, an Australian transit visa and a United Arab Emirates transit visa.

Why don't I want to give up my China citizenship?

Entrepreneur Ma Ying: At present, I still hold a China passport. I think the China passport is quite good, and there is nothing inconvenient. I travel abroad and get a visa, so I can sign in without any trouble. It's nothing. I want to live in China after retirement. Besides, I am from China, how can I swear allegiance to another country?

Fly, a media worker: I was qualified to become a New Zealand citizen a long time ago, but I don't want to. Apart from the convenience of returning to China, I feel that I am from China, and there must be something connected with China. It's not about pensions or anything. I went abroad early and left my job, so I couldn't get any pension. I just want to be treated as porcelain when I return home. Now, I think there are still many inconveniences in obtaining China passport in China. For example, you need an ID card to do anything in China. As we all know, the ID card has expired. It's embarrassing to stay in China with a China passport. Say you are from China, but you don't have an ID card. Suppose it is a foreigner. Another China passport. When I participated in the Shanghai World Expo, I couldn't get a press card because there were only two ways to participate in the Expo. China journalists hold identity cards, and foreign journalists hold passports. I was embarrassed and struggled through a leader. So I hope China's policy will be more detailed. They are all policies of China and should come down in one continuous line.

D: At present, the China passport is really not easy to use, but if one day, the China government thinks that it can completely liberalize its travel abroad, it will definitely take the initiative to negotiate visa exemption, and it may not be so difficult to get a visa then. For example, it was troublesome to get a passport a few years ago, but now it is easy. I'm from China anyway.

Bird in the Woods: If you give up China citizenship now and want to naturalize again, I'm afraid it will be as difficult as flying to heaven. You know, our populous country has the highest immigration control in the world. Therefore, I will never give up my China citizenship, and I will never give up my New Zealand citizenship.

Ron: I haven't changed it yet, because more is better than less. You need a visa to return to China after changing your nationality, and your parents and sisters are still in China. I go back almost once a year, so it is inconvenient to change my nationality and return to China. Maybe I will change it later, but I don't plan to change it for the time being.

Marshall: After all, it's more affordable to keep China passport, otherwise a visa will cost NZ $100 to NZ $200! You can buy 10 Guangdong roast duck here! I am actually a patriotic person.

Why did I choose to become a New Zealand citizen?

Among all the new immigrants who joined New Zealand, it seems that the most common reason is to want to travel around the world. But on closer examination, there are still different reasons. The number of visa-free countries seems to be the gold content of a passport. New Zealand passports can be said to be one of the best in the world. Visa-free access to 168 countries and regions, only 5 less than the number one Britain, Finland and Sweden.

Steven, Business Manager: It is estimated that everyone from China who comes to New Zealand to work hard has an idea. After establishing a foothold here, he must look for opportunities to return to China, start a business or become a management. After all, China is our hometown, which is more developed than foreign countries. I have the same idea. After working in a company in New Zealand for several years, I returned to work in Shanghai and gained a lot of insights. After working in Shanghai for 3 years, I had children and returned to New Zealand. First of all, I feel that life in New Zealand is more stable and practical. During my days in Shanghai, I worked overtime until 10 every day. I went to work normally on Saturday and worked overtime on Sunday. My boss can call me at any time and ask me to come to the company at once, whether I am having dinner with my family or taking care of the children. In the boss's view, his instructions are imperial edicts. He has the right to dominate me when he pays me. Later, it was discovered that many bosses of China Company were like this. There is no equality between boss and employee, let alone the minimum respect. So, although my annual salary in China is very high, which is twice my income in New Zealand, I finally returned to New Zealand with my family. After I came back, I was naturalized. I think I still like the way of life in New Zealand, the respect and equality between New Zealanders and the peace there.

Kiwi, media person: I changed my New Zealand passport as soon as I qualified, so I didn't hesitate. When you go abroad, your account will be cancelled, so be a New Zealander through and through. New Zealand passport must be much better, and life in New Zealand is also my favorite life!

Sheep herding every day: I changed my passport as soon as I met the requirements. Just go back to China and apply for a visa. It's not inconvenient I won't go back to China for development in the future. I'm here wholeheartedly. This does not mean that I am unpatriotic. My family also immigrated to New Zealand, which is quite good.

It seems that whether to choose naturalization after immigrating to New Zealand has its own advantages and disadvantages. Everyone's situation is different. We need to consider the actual situation and make a choice after weighing in many ways.
