Get New Zealand Permanent Resident Visa
Residences are different from permanent residences. A Resident Visa usually leads to a Permanent Resident Visa. By contrast, Permanent Resident Visas permit indefinite re-entry to New Zealand (provided the passport is valid), while Resident Visas restrict re-entry as a resident.
Your resident visa expires on either of the following dates: Unless your travel conditions have already expired, your departure date from New Zealand is Travel conditions expire the day after the date you were outside New Zealand. If you leave New Zealand after your travel conditions expire, you have also lost your resident visa. A permanent resident visa or subsequent resident visa is required for residents who need to regain their resident status after their resident visa travel conditions have expired.
