When you’re planning a move to New Zealand you want the confidence of dealing with a professional.

If you choose to work with an Immigration Adviser, the first step is to make certain you find an immigration adviser who acts responsibly and provides accurate information about migrating to New Zealand. Only licensed advisors are able to provide this advice.

The Immigration Advisers Authority licenses Immigration Advisers in New Zealand and around the world. The Authority regulates the industry to protect the interests of people receiving immigration advice. To check the register of licensed Immigration Advisers, go to http://www.iaa.govt.nz/Register.htm

All Immigration Advisers based in New Zealand must now have a licence from 4 May 2009. Immigration Advisers based overseas have until 2010 to be licensed.  Immigration lawyers are exempt from this legislation.
