What funds, insurance, onward travel or similar preparation is particularly important?

The Peru Working Holiday Visa is available under an annual cap and opening date to Peruvian citizens aged 18 to 30. The applicant needs a valid Peruvian passport, at least three years of full-time study towards a tertiary qualification, NZD 4,200 with an acceptable English test result or NZD 7,000 without one, full medical insurance and plans to leave New Zealand; a previous New Zealand working holiday visa disqualifies even if unused. The visa allows up to 12 months, temporary work up to 12 months, work for one employer for up to three months, and study or training up to six months in total. The page's dynamically rendered extension section does not expose the seasonal-work field labels in the captured text, so the extension detail remains unresolved.

Limits of the record
  • The page is dynamically rendered and omits the seasonal-work field labels in the extension paragraph; the extension conditions are therefore not treated as confirmed in this batch.
  • The official material states no repeat-participation exception beyond the express prohibition after a previous New Zealand working holiday visa.

How long can the person stay, can the programme be extended or repeated, and what happens when it ends?

The holder can stay in New Zealand for up to 12 months. Those doing work in certain industries may be able to stay longer by applying for a Working Holiday Extension Work Visa: after completing 3 months of such work, they may be able to stay for another 3 months. The programme cannot be repeated: a person cannot apply if they have been given a working holiday visa before, even if they did not use the visa. Holders must have plans to leave New Zealand at the end of their stay.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • The type of work and industries that qualify for the extension are link text not preserved in the captured page (the sentence reads 'in the ... or ... industries').
  • The cited text does not state what happens when the stay ends (e.g. a departure obligation).

These are the answers currently recorded in the catalogue. A missing or partial answer is not an eligibility decision.
