Immigration
We support the Government to deliver an immigration system that functions well within wider labour market, economic, community and security contexts. This includes matching the skills and talents people bring to the skills New Zealand needs, enabling New Zealand’s security, and supporting our international relationships and important trade markets.
From time to time we seek public comment on a specific issue through a formal consultation process.
We are changing the way employers recruit some migrants for temporary work in New Zealand.
Visit the Immigration New Zealand website to read about how we implement the changes to temporary work visas and what the changes mean for you and your business.
We are leading an in-depth policy and operational review to better understand temporary migrant worker exploitation in New Zealand and identify impactful and enduring solutions.
