Still not sure on which visa I would potentially come out on though?Hey Beaver,
What Andy said about a tourist visa could work, that would give you three months before it runs out to find work if I’m not mistaken. I came out on an IEP visa which it’s possible to get before your 36th birthday (so up to the age of 35). You can only get this through a company called Bunac. Because they have a monopoly on this it means it costs around three times that of a regular working holiday visa (because they force you to buy a holiday package with it) which you can grab up to the age of 30. I also didn’t have to get a medical or a police certificate to get my visa but this is all dependant on your own personal circumstances I guess and something definitely worth checking up on.
Then you will have to convert your license to the equivalent NZ license before you will be allowed to work.

Above link should cover everything you need to know about converting your license.
Thanks for all the help fella’s. I have experienced 45 summers & winters sadly, so the under 30 thing is a distant memory
(A bit like my 6 pack and knob length
)
Plenty food for thought…getting a bit sick of Englandski/Britistan.
I find myself reading this thread with interest, I agree with beaver, sick of how the industry is going DOWNHILL FAST together with Englandski…
I’m particularly interested in the cost of living & equivalent wages in NZ compared to here & also where in NZ would you say get’s the most sunshine??
Thanks.
