Changes mean visitors and influencers working for foreign employers can stay longer in bid to boost tourism

Visitor visas will now allow people to work remotely for a foreign employer while they are visiting New Zealand for up to 90 days. The visa can be extended up to nine months but visitors may need to pay tax during this time.
