The Entrepreneur Work Visa operates under a points-based system that will result in higher quality, more productive businesses. 

Points will be offered for criteria including age, job creation, export potential, and business experience. A minimum capital investment of 0,000 will also be required to ensure applicants have the means to create high growth and innovative businesses.

This policy encourages innovative, export focused businesses, while demonstrating a commitment of the Government to the regions.

It is expected that these changes will attract talented, entrepreneurial migrants who can invest in New Zealand communities, grow profitable businesses, and create jobs for New Zealanders around the country.
