New Zealand Visa Bureau » New Zealand Immigration » Business Visa » Active Investor Visa
The new Active Investor Migrant policy is made up of three categories:
The amount of investment, the activeness of the investment and the potential to contribute to New Zealand in human and financial capital will dictate which category investors apply under. The three cateogries have been designed with this potential contribution and the level of risk in mind.
Having money in a bank account or invested in residential property does not meet the policy requirement for the investment being 'active' or 'semi-active'.

Applicants for the general category are selected through a points system which takes into account the value of technology transfer, export linkages, entrepreneurship and management skills. It will also consider the benefit of the active investment and the importance of having both financial and human capital.
