If you’re planning to visit New Zealand, there’s fantastic news for remote workers and digital nomads! Until recently, visitors were restricted from working remotely for an offshore business while in New Zealand on a Visitor Visa. However, the rules have changed.
Starting January 27, 2025, this condition has been officially removed, making it easier than ever for digital nomads to combine business with leisure. New Zealand now welcomes visitors who want to enjoy the country’s stunning landscapes, vibrant culture, and warm hospitality, all while staying connected to their work back home.
Whether you need to catch up on emails or attend virtual meetings for your overseas employer, you can now do so legally while savouring New Zealand’s world-class experiences. Imagine working with a view of snow-capped mountains, serene beaches, or lush green forests! New Zealand also boasts state-of-the-art shared office spaces, perfect for hosting important meetings and staying productive.
This change reflects New Zealand’s recognition of the evolving nature of work and the growing community of global professionals who value flexibility and freedom. It’s the perfect opportunity to blend productivity with adventure.
