STEP 1. CHECK YOU’RE ELIGIBLE
First, check you’re eligible on our overview page for a New Zealand working holiday visa. Then choose your USIT package – ESSENTIALS, ALL IN or COMPLETE – and pay your deposit.
STEP 2. APPLY FOR YOUR VISA
Our team will send you a simple form and then apply for your New Zealand visa on your behalf. Visas usually take 2-3 weeks, but may take longer if further information is required.
STEP 3. BOOK YOUR FLIGHTS
Insurance is included in all our packages, but you’ll need to sort your own flights. Once booked, let us know the details so we can book your transfer. (ALL IN and COMPLETE only).
STEP 4. PAY YOUR BALANCE
Your balance is due 8 weeks before you go. Don’t worry if you have backpacker brain fog, we’ll let you know when it’s coming up.
STEP 5. LAND IN NZ
Get transferred from the airport to your Auckland hostel and start your 4-day or 7-day itinerary – packed with new mates and new adventures. (ALL IN and COMPLETE only)
