New Zealand is a country in the south-western Pacific, on the North and South Islands. Through the Active Investor Plus program, investors can obtain a resident visa by putting money into approved projects.

Legal grounds for the residence permit

To get a New Zealand residence permit by investment, you need to place funds in one or more asset classes - each has its own scoring system:

  • Investment in approved businesses (qualifying multiplier X3). With an investment of 5 million New Zealand dollars, its qualifying value comes to 15 million New Zealand dollars.
  • Investment in approved managed funds (qualifying multiplier X2).
  • Investment in listed assets or philanthropy (qualifying multiplier X1).

Exact timelines and amounts depend on the type of investment you choose. On a free consultation we will check your documents and tell you straight whether the program suits you.
