🇳🇿 New Zealand Tourist Visa
For Turkish citizens planning to travel to New Zealand for tourism purposes, it is very important to clearly state the purpose of travel during the visa application. The travel dates, a step-by-step itinerary, confirmed flight and hotel reservations, and proof of sufficient financial means must all be presented. The New Zealand Consulate expects applicants to be “Bona Fide,” meaning genuine and acting in good faith. The consulate seeks evidence that the applicant’s intention is truly for tourism, that they will only stay in the country temporarily, that they will not engage in any unlawful activity, and that they will leave the country legally at the end of their stay.
Among the required documents, certain papers are requested to prove this intention. Applicants traveling for tourism, business, education, seminars, conferences, fairs, language courses, or family/friend visits must state their purpose clearly and apply under the correct category. Below is the list of documents required for a New Zealand Tourist Visa. Once you prepare the documents suitable to your personal situation and deliver them to us, your application process will begin and is generally finalized within about 25 days. Please note that the following is a general list; the specific list of documents will be customized according to each applicant’s personal circumstances. After contacting us, the exact required list will be provided, and your application will proceed accordingly.
Note: Documents submitted in this visa application should be in English as much as possible. A notary certification is not required for translations; the translator’s stamp and signature are sufficient. Marsel Visa also provides translation services upon request.
