Immigration New Zealand closes Hamilton public counter
This is part of Immigration New Zealand’s (INZ) move to phase out paper applications in favour of online applications.
The Hamilton office and public counter (level 5 Westpac House, Cnr Victoria and Alma Streets) closed on Friday 11 August 2017. INZ is encouraging students to use its online services.
However, paper applications can still be sent directly to the addresses provided on the INZ website here.
For any enquiries or urgent assistance, students should contact the INZ contact centre on 0508 55 88 55. The centre has qualified staff who can help with enquiries, including staff with language skills to help where English is a second language.
In instances where a face-to-face service is necessary, INZ will arrange an appointment with an Immigration Officer.
Please note that an INZ counter in Palmerston North is also set to close in early September.

Reach out to students in Japan
ENZ’s Senior Market Development Manager – Japan, Misa Kitaoka, said the annual guidebook is the only Japanese publication officially supported by the Embassy in Tokyo and ENZ.
“Keibunsha publishes this study guidebook for many other English-speaking embassies and is a great opportunity for New Zealand regional bodies and education providers to promote their offering,” said Misa.
“As destination marketing plays a key part of edu-promotion in Japan, Keibunsha is offering a separate advertising rate for regional groups.”
To advertise, bookings must be made by 10 April.
For further details on the guidebook and pricing for regional groups, download the proposal here. For individual providers, download the proposal here.

Towards a low-carbon future – together
The week-long programme was organised and funded to a large extent by DAAD (the German Academic Exchange Service), with the overall objective of deepening existing academic links and encouraging the development of new ones, under the theme of transitioning to a low-carbon economy.
Led by ENZ Chief Executive Grant McPherson, delegates from New Zealand’s Centres of Research Excellence (CoREs) met with German academics, researchers, government officials and students in Bonn, Cologne, Aachen, Hamburg and Berlin.
As an outcome of the trip, DAAD and the Kiwi delegates are working on an action plan that includes opportunities for cooperation between New Zealand researchers and their German counterparts, particularly on sustainability issues in line with the visit’s theme; a potential government-level arrangement to facilitate academic exchange; and possible funding for post-graduate student mobility.
It was the first time that ENZ had brought such a senior research delegation to Germany.
“Germany is one of New Zealand’s key education partners in Europe, with nearly 3000 German students travelling to New Zealand in 2018,” McPherson says. “However, alongside student recruitment, we’re renewing our focus on encouraging academic mobility between our two nations.”
“This delegation was all about showcasing the excellence of New Zealand’s research institutions. Our academics produce world-class work, and teaming up with partners like Germany will only create more opportunity for researchers to solve some of the world’s biggest problems.”
