New Zealand Working Holiday Visa Financial Requirements

A further requirement of a New Zealand working holiday visa is that you have sufficient funds to meet your basic needs during your stay.

The New Zealand visa financial requirements state that you must have a minimum of NZ$4,200 (approximately $3,500 USD) available funds toward meeting your living costs. This requirement is to ensure that you can meet your basic living costs. You will be asked to declare that you have this at the point of application.

The New Zealand authorities sometimes ask for proof of funds when entering the country.

You must also possess a ticket to depart New Zealand, or have sufficient funds to purchase a ticket. You may also be asked for proof of this when entering New Zealand.


If you would like to discuss this further, or have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact one of our visa experts.
