In New Zealand, healthcare professionals are required to complete registration with their professional board.
It can be a long and complicated process and we recommend that you apply for registration at least 4 months ahead of your intended arrival time. For some healthcare professionals, such as doctors, applications will take longer to process.

We have prepared flow diagrams which summarise each registration boards application process. Please click on the links below to see your registration’s board process. Alternatively you can click through directly to their website via the links below.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact us directly via email or live chat and we will happily provide detailed answers to your questions.
