Frequently asked questions
- How many licensed immigration advisers are there in Wellington?
- As at August 2026 there are 58 immigration advisers with a current licence based in the Wellington area, working across 44 businesses. The count comes from the official IAA register, which this directory re-checks every month.
- How should I choose an immigration adviser in Wellington?
- Verify the licence first: every listing here shows the adviser's licence number, licence type and how long they have been licensed. Then compare experience with your visa type, and confirm fees in writing before engaging. A current full licence means the adviser can handle any immigration matter; provisional licence holders work under supervision.
- Do I have to use an immigration adviser in Wellington, or can I use a lawyer?
- Either works. New Zealand lawyers with a practising certificate are exempt from adviser licensing and can also give immigration advice. What matters is that whoever you pay is either licensed or exempt; anyone else is acting unlawfully.
