Business Investor Visa
Invest in New Zealand. Secure Your Future.
New Zealand Business Investor Visa
New Zealand is opening new doors for international investors. The Business Investor Visa (BIV) offers two clear pathways to residence. To this effect, the Business Investor Visa provides a pathway to residence for business migrants who are ready to invest in, operate and grow established businesses in Aotearoa New Zealand.
- NZ$1 million investment – a 3-year work-to-residence pathway
- NZ$2 million investment – a 12-month fast-track to residence
You can buy a business outright or acquire a 25%+ stake, and both options make you eligible to apply for the Business Investor Resident Visa.
