New Zealand loosens visa rules to attract digital nomads and influencers
New Zealand authorities hope this move can help boost the country’s economy
© Shutterstock
According to new rules, digital nomads and influencers who hold a visitor visa in New Zealand will now be able to work remotely for up to 90 days. Potentially, they will be able to extend their visa up to nine months, but may be required to pay additional tax in order to do so.
Economic Growth Minister Nicola Willis spoke about the new decision during a media conference, emphasizing that digital nomads still must work for a foreign employer, so that they would not end up competing with locals for jobs in New Zealand.
“We want more wealth and super-talented people coming in the arrival gates,” Willis added. As she further explained, she believed it would be a great opportunity to encourage travelers around the world to spend and invest in New Zealand, which could prove very beneficial, as the country suffered the biggest reduction in GDP compared to any other developed nation in 2024.
Have you always wanted the freedom to travel without being tied down to an office? If so, you're like a lot of people out there who dream of a digital nomad lifestyle. Imagine waking up in a beautiful foreign place and taking your laptop to a café by the beach or a rooftop bar. But out of all the cities available, where should you go?
The website Nomad Capitalist recently released its 'Best Cities for Digital Nomads in 2025' list, and we've ranked the top 15 in this gallery. For each location, you'll find out why it might be the top choice for you, plus information on the digital nomad visas offered by some countries.
