Coming to New Zealand
Residence is usually reached one visa at a time
Very few people arrive on a residence visa. Most come first as a visitor, as a student, or on a work visa — and which one you start on shapes what you are able to apply for next.
Getting that sequence right at the beginning is the difference between a plan that keeps moving and one that has to be unpicked. Daniel advises on the whole path, for individuals and for families, in Korean and in English.
Hiring from overseas? Daniel also advises employers on accreditation, job checks and AEWV applications. For employers
