WHY CHOOSE NEW ZEALAND?

New Zealand is widely known as one of the most livable countries in the world, with a peaceful lifestyle and breathtaking natural scenery.

    • Area: 268,021 km²

    • Population: Approximately 5.3 million people

The government remains open to welcoming international migrants. In 2024, New Zealand received around 173,000 migrants from around the world.

To date, the government has continued to introduce new policies to attract immigrants and investors due to several key reasons:

    • An aging population and ongoing brain drain to Australia — its much larger neighboring country.

    • A growing number of young people relying on government benefits.

    • Labor shortages across many industries, especially in low-skilled and general labor sectors.

→ This creates strong opportunities for international workers, particularly in general labor occupations.
