The government is overhauling its investor visa programme to attract more foreign capital, replacing the underutilised ‘Active Investor Plus’ visa with two new categories from April 1.
Prime Minister Christopher Luxon announced the ‘Growth’ category, requiring a $5 million investment in higher-risk ventures over three years, and the ‘Balanced’ category, requiring $10 million over five years with lower-risk options.
The changes aim to simplify the process, expand investment opportunities, and remove barriers like the English language requirement.

For sale…
Nz passports
It’s OK if you can speak English. But if you can’t speak English but have 10 million dollars to invest, it’s OK.
For Sale!! 🇳🇿
Prostitution
Waste of time. Too much is now wrong with NZ culture. Cash to fund the Iwi and DEI takeover. It will probably fail.
They can sell this country out to foreigners,but when the Cook Islands do the same thing they get all bent out of shape.Whose interest do they represent?
Sell everything own nothing and you will all be happy ….. YEA RIGHT
PISS OFF WEF AGENDA 2030
Just like Jon key.
Sold this country to the Chinese and others like his mate Peter theil. Buy nz residency.
Disgusting globalist sell outs.
Y’all too poor to make any money off of. Gotta get some rich people in here to drive up property/housing market/real estate boom.
Sadly you’ll be the new Hawaiians. They can’t afford to buy a home on their own islands 😕.
This is real. When I recently went on my first trip to Hawaii I wondered if I’d actually see any local Hawaiins. I did, living in tents on the dry, western coast
Why would I want to come to NZ if I have $5Mil?! There are plenty of other places ‘closer to the rest of the world’ and no or minimum red-tape BS to start a business -certainly less than here-, as well as no such self-entitled white-collar working class ‘demanding’ WFH arrangements.
More qualified overseas investment is a very good move. Why do people think this a bad for New Zealand?
They wanna dig deep holes and hide in them when shtf
