visa information

There are a few options for visas to work in the UK – most of our applicants apply for the Youth Mobility Visa which allows you to live and work there for two years. 

To apply for the Youth Mobility Visa you will need to attend an appointment at a visa processing centre in Auckland, Wellington or Christchurch.
