The Active Investor Plus Visa Pathway<\/p>\n<p>What sets <a href=\"https:\/\/immgroup.com\/hieu-ve-nuoc-new-zealand\/\">New Zealand<\/a> apart is that, when assessing citizenship, it <strong>makes no distinction<\/strong> between investors and other migrant groups. This keeps the system fair, but it also demands real commitment: investors must be present, live in the country, and integrate \u2014 they cannot simply &#8220;invest from afar.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The standard pathway: Investor visa \u2192 Permanent resident \u2192 New Zealand citizenship<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Stage 1 \u2013 Obtain the Active Investor Plus Visa<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The program has two investment categories:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Growth:<\/strong> a minimum investment of NZ$5 million, held for 3 years, with at least 21 days spent in New Zealand.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Balanced:<\/strong> a minimum investment of NZ$10 million, held for 5 years, with at least 105 days spent in New Zealand (fewer if you invest more than NZ$13 million).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once they have met the investment and presence requirements, investors may apply for a Permanent Resident Visa.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Stage 2 \u2013 Become a permanent resident (PR)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Once the investment period ends and you have shown sufficient time in New Zealand, you may apply for PR \u2014 <strong>residence status with no expiry date<\/strong> in New Zealand. There is no visa to renew, and your capital is no longer tied up. However, to keep your PR valid, you must still maintain <strong>genuine ties<\/strong> to New Zealand and hold lawful status without a break for the next 5 years.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Stage 3 \u2013 Apply for citizenship<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The main requirements for citizenship are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A <strong>minimum of 5 years of residence<\/strong> in New Zealand with valid PR status.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>During that period, you must be physically present in New Zealand for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>At least <strong>240 days<\/strong> over 5 years, and<\/li>\n<li>At least <strong>135 days per year<\/strong> for a minimum of 5 consecutive years.<\/li>\n<li>Demonstrate an intention to live in New Zealand long term.<\/li>\n<li>Good character, including a clean criminal record check and honest financial dealings.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Basic English proficiency<\/strong>, enough to communicate and to understand your rights as a citizen.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Note: you must <strong>hold PR continuously for 5 years<\/strong> before applying for citizenship.
