Dear Charlie,

 

You have submitted your question as an Official Information Act request
via the FYI.org website. However, we haven't responded to you under the
Official Information Act because you have not requested any specific
information from the Minister.

 

In response to your question, we refer you to the Immigration New Zealand
website where the instructions to the changes of the Active Investor Plus
visa were published on 4 March 2025: 
[1]https://www.immigration.govt.nz/about-us...

 

Further information will be published in the Immigration New Zealand
Operations Manual and made publicly available in on 1 April 2025.  We
strongly encourage all prospective applicants, especially those from
countries with foreign currency restrictions in place, to carefully review
the instructions relevant to the transfer of funds within Immigration New
Zealand’s Operational Manual or seek advice from a licenced immigration
advisor or immigration lawyer prior to applying. 

 

 

Ngâ mihi
