ProVisas publishes advisory fees for every visa category and immigration-issue service. All fees below are NZD, exclusive of GST, and indicative — the final fee is confirmed in writing in your engagement letter before any work begins. Complex cases involving health, character, or multiple applications may fall outside these ranges.
Pricing principle
Professional advisory fees are separate from INZ government fees and any third-party costs (medical examinations, police certificates, translations, courier fees). All expected external costs are explained upfront so there are no surprises.
