Options if your visa is expiring;
If your visa is due to expire, you need to either leave New Zealand or secure a new visa to stay.
If you’re facing international travel restrictions due to COVID-19, you can apply for the COVID-19 short-term visitor visa. This visa is available for people who are genuinely unable to leave New Zealand and need more time to arrange travel home.
Recent changes to the Supplementary Seasonal Employment work visa have also made it easier for some temporary visa holders to stay and work in horticulture and viticulture.
Please refer to the "Options if you’re unable to leave New Zealand" from Immigration New Zealand website.
