How do minor relatives apply for a New Zealand visa?

According to the purpose and planned stay in New Zealand, children's visas are mainly divided into two types: student visas and tourist visas. Student visas are applicable to children who plan to study in New Zealand, and tourist visas are applicable to children who plan to travel for a short time.

There are two main ways to apply: online application and email application. Online application is fast and convenient. You need to prepare the required materials in advance and fill in the application form according to the guidelines.
