What is VisaView?

Under the Immigration Act 2009 (and the Immigration Act 1987), an employer must not employ a foreign national who is not entitled to work in New Zealand or entitled to work for that employer. This applies whether or not the employer knew that the foreign national was not entitled to work.

The VisaView online service allows New Zealand employers to access records held by  Immigration New Zealand and to check whether a person who is not a New Zealand citizen is entitled to work in New Zealand.
