Apply for a New Zealand Skilled Migration Visa

The programme aims to meet current skills shortages by attracting skilled migrants who can make an immediate contribution to the New Zealand economy. Tradespeople are in particular demand.
Complete the New Zealand Skilled Migration Visa Assessment
The Skilled Migration category is core to the New Zealand Immigration strategy. The Skilled Migration category offers individuals the opportunity to emigrate to New Zealand by helping boost the New Zealand skilled workforce.
This category was designed to minimise the risk of a mismatch between the skills migrants bring and the skills New Zealand needs. Migration under this category follows a step-by-step application process, from the initial assessment of ability to the settlement stage in New Zealand.
New Zealand Visa Bureau's free online Skilled Migration Visa assessment will provide you with your points score on completion and you will be given the option at that stage to request a free telephonic or email consultation with an experienced migration consultant specialising in evaluating eligibility for migration to New Zealand.
As part of this initial free consultation, the consultant will discuss the options open to you and provide you with guidance on what visas are suitable and practical to your situation.

The reason it is called a High Commission and not an Embassy, which is the more commonly known term, is because permanent diplomatic missions between Commonwealth countries are known as High Commissions.
