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.

“I'd like to start off by saying that my choice to teach abroad in Korea was one I know I will never regret! Footprints made it very easy to communicate with the school regarding details of where I'd be living and what I'd be teaching as well as taking care of my flight information. At the airport the morning we left, my boyfriend and I encountered overweight bags and extremely long lines at security, and we missed our flight by literally one minute. As we watched our plane pull from the gate, we just about lost our minds and any hope that we'd make the long journey we'd been planning for so long. We made one simple phone call to the travel agent, Claus, that Footprints set us up with. It was 6AM where he was on a Monday morning when we called in a panic. He said, "Stay by your phone," and we knew that he would fix this fiasco for us. Luckily, while Claus was searching for a solution, a woman from United Airlines was able to book us on another flight so that we would make our connection out of the U.S. to Seoul. We would like to thank Claus and Laina at Footprints for all their help in getting us to Korea!
