Employee Accreditation
Simply Visa NZ brings over 10 years of experience in immigration law to assist employers in hiring skilled migrant workers through the Work Visa and Residence Visa process.

What is Employer Accreditation?
Hiring skilled migrant workers can be a game-changer for your business, but Employer Accreditation is the first step. While the process may seem complex at first, Simply Visa NZ has helped countless employers navigate it with ease. Our goal is to make the process as simple, cost-effective, and stress-free as possible—so you can focus on growing your team.
Why Accreditation Matters
Since 2022, all New Zealand employers must be accredited with Immigration New Zealand (INZ) before hiring migrant workers. Accreditation ensures that employers meet ethical employment standards and can support migrants fairly in the workplace.
Employer Job Check
Before hiring a migrant worker, Immigration New Zealand (INZ) requires employers to show that they’ve made a genuine effort to train, upskill, and hire New Zealand workers first. This is done through a Job Check application, which proves that no suitable local candidates are available for the role.
How It Works:
Submit a Job Check application to INZ, demonstrating the need to hire a migrant worker.
If no qualified New Zealanders are found, INZ will approve the Job Check.
Once approved—and your business is accredited—you can hire migrants under the Accredited Employer Work Visa (AEWV) program.
We’re here to help you navigate the Job Check process smoothly and efficiently, so you can focus on finding the right talent for your business.
