Work — Specific Purpose / Entertainers / TalentVerified 19 Apr 2026Narrow work visa categories for specific events, film/TV productions, exceptional talent in arts/culture/sports. NZD 860.
Information only
New Zealand work and residence categories need a New Zealand–licensed (IAA) adviser, so we don't file them.
NZ work and residence categories (AEWV, Skilled Migrant, Green List, Parent) require ongoing engagement with NZ employers' accreditation, Job Check approvals, occupation-specific registration, and NZQA qualification assessments. NZ law also requires paid immigration advice (other than for student visas) to come from Immigration Advisers Authority (IAA) licensed advisers or NZ-qualified lawyers. SureshotVisa specialises in short-stay visit, business, and student visa applications — please consult an IAA-licensed NZ immigration adviser or lawyer for these categories.

New Zealand for Indian applicants — handled by SureshotVisa
India is not NZeTA-eligible. There's no Working Holiday Scheme with NZ. And the Funds Transfer Scheme — open to only four countries including India — is a legitimate edge for student cases. We file NZ Student, Pathway & English-course visas end-to-end from India — the categories NZ law lets an offshore consultancy handle. For visitor and other short-stay categories we prepare you with honest information and point you to an IAA-licensed adviser for the filing itself. Most India-based decisions are made by INZ Mumbai branch — timelines we know down to the week.
Note: New Zealand law allows an offshore consultancy to advise on student-category visas only — so our end-to-end filing covers Student, Pathway and English-course visas. For every other NZ category (Visitor, Business, Medical, Transit, AEWV, Skilled Migrant, Green List, Parent, Investor) these pages are information, and the filing itself needs an Immigration Advisers Authority (IAA) licensed adviser — we'll point you to a trusted one if that's your case.

What it costs
Paid directly to New Zealand / VFS — these are not our service fee, and we never mark them up.

All NZ visa fees are set in NZD by Immigration New Zealand and paid online at apply.immigration.govt.nz. The INR amount depends on NZD/INR exchange rate on payment day.

Non-refundable regardless of outcome.

New Zealand assesses genuine temporary intent — the bookings matter less than the reason you are coming back.
0 of 4 are compulsory for New Zealand
Where people slip: Applying with open-ended dates. "Genuine temporary entrant" is the test, and open dates argue against you.
Book for ₹708 (+₹472 per family member)Where people slip: Listing a family address with no evidence of who lives there.
Confirmed hotel booking, ₹590 per hotel: message us firstWhere people slip: Skipping it entirely at 65 or over. If a medical examination is triggered, cover strengthens the file.
Where people slip: An itinerary longer than the leave your employer approved in writing.
The letter your itinerary attaches toWe can arrange the flight reservation, the hotel and the itinerary for your New Zealand file — each sold separately.
We are a B2B travel agency as well as a visa consultancy, working with partners including Riya Travel — so the flight reservation and the confirmed hotel booking both come from us, and you deal with one team. Every booking is a real one under your own name. We do not sell travel insurance: buy the policy directly from an insurer.
None of them is part of our visa fee: each is bought on its own, at the price below, with or without our visa service.
Flight reservation ₹708 (+₹472 per extra family member) · Confirmed hotel booking ₹590 per hotel · Travel itinerary ₹1,499. GST included.
Delivery. Usually within 30 minutes during office hours, Mon–Sat 10:00–18:00 IST. Confirmed hotel bookings are not bought online: message us first on WhatsApp or email info@sureshotvisa.com with the city, dates and travellers.

What to gather
Having a document isn't the same as presenting it right — that's the part we handle.
All Australian visas require a valid passport for the duration of stay.

Every case here is different
There is no honest standard answer for New Zealand specific purpose work visa / entertainers / talent visas — the route depends on who is sponsoring you, what the employer has already started, and which region is processing it. So rather than publish generic answers that may not fit your case, we would rather read your actual situation. Send us what you have: an offer letter, an email from the employer, or just the facts as they stand. A consultant at our licensed firm will tell you straight what is possible, what is not, and what it would take.
