Student Visas

To enable you to study on a course you will need to apply for a Study Visa from Immigration NZ. The following information is a brief outline of what Immigration NZ will require from you. To enter New Zealand you need:

  • to have an offer of a place from a New Zealand education provider such as a school, polytechnic or university
    evidence that you've arranged accommodation through the education provider or through another person.
  • to be in good health and of good character. If your stay is longer than six months, in some cases you may need to complete a TB clearance. You may also need to complete a medical and police certificate depending on how long you intend to stay in New Zealand.
  • a passport that's valid for at least three months past the date you are to leave New Zealand.
  • proof that you plan to leave New Zealand once you've completed your study.
  • proof that:
    • you've paid any course fees that you're required to pay, or
    • you're exempt from paying fees, or
    • you have a scholarship or an award that covers your fee
  • proof that you have enough money to support yourself during your stay.
  • to have the right visa for your visit.

The course is approved by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority under the provisions of the Education Act 1989, and the National Trade Academy Ltd is accredited to teach it.
