There are some very important differences at the TECO office in New Zealand from TECO offices everywhere else in the world.
First, you must apply at least 10 days prior to your departure or you must give the TECO visa division special notice. If you don't, your application will be rejected.
If you're applying for Resident Visa you must give 3 weeks advance notice.
There are two TECO offices in New Zealand where teachers can apply for visitor visas.
We recommend that you get a single entry, as you will be changing the status of your visa once you arrive to a Resident Visa and then you can apply for a multiple entry. If you do not have a multiple entry and you leave the country, your visa is invalidated. Before applying for your visa please contact the TECO office directly to chat with them about the best way of getting a 60 day visitor visa. Do not mention you are going to be teaching unless you have been accepted for a placement with the Ministry of Education.

“A calm breeze lightly tosses my hair about, as I stroll the waterfront not far from my apartment. The waves crashing the shore have an intoxicating scent that propels all sorts of pleasant daydreaming. Am I in paradise? No I am most certainly not. But I am in a country I was dying to visit, and got more than I anticipated. Footprints Recruiting set me up with an ideal job that fits my teaching desires and has thus provided a backdrop to an amazing experience. I left for Korea in October of 2003, and I am currently teaching in Haeundae Beach Busan. Footprints takes care of you in a way that dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s are just the tip of the iceberg. I recommend this to the adventure seeking minds.”
