New Zealand
Strategic Overview New Zealand’s Active Investor Plus program is the definitive solution for those seeking a safe haven in a nation globally recognized for its stability, governance, and unparalleled quality of life. Launched in 2025, this modern framework uniquely requires investment after approval, mitigating risk and rewarding active engagement with the country’s growth sectors.
Core Advantages
- Invest with Confidence: Commit capital only after your residency application has been approved in principle, offering unmatched security.
- Efficient Processing: Secure a pathway to residence in as little as four months following formal approval.
- Flexible Presence Requirements: The program is designed for global citizens, with minimal stay requirements—as low as 21 days over a three-year period for the “Growth” stream.
Family & Eligibility The program is designed to accommodate your family, allowing for the inclusion of a spouse or partner and dependent children up to the age of 24.
Investment Framework
- Growth Stream: Requires a NZD 5,000,000 investment in eligible assets with a minimal physical presence of 21 days over three years.
- Balanced Stream: Involves a higher total investment but offers greater flexibility, with a presence requirement of 105 days over five years.
Pathway to Citizenship & Updates After fulfilling the investment and presence terms, you can secure permanent residence. A clear pathway to citizenship is available after five years, subject to meeting significant presence requirements. A September 2025 policy update also permits investors to acquire or build a personal residence under specific conditions.
