New Zealand will split open work visa holders into two employment categories from April 20, 2026. Category 1 allows any work including business ownership, while Category 2 restricts to employee-only roles. This affects Partner, Post-Study, and Working Holiday visas. Migrants currently working in prohibited roles may continue until visa expiry. The changes aim to clarify rights and reduce employer uncertainty.
