Kiwi Translation is experienced in immigration translation and has worked with immigration advisers, immigration lawyers and individuals from around New Zealand to assist them with translations for immigration applications.
At Kiwi Translation, we provide approved translations that meet the requirements of Immigration New Zealand. Translations submitted to Immigration New Zealand must be certified by a recognised translator from a recognised private or official translation service and may not be translated by friends or family of the applicant, immigration advisers or any person with an interest in the outcome of the application.

Translations for NZQA
Our translations are recognized by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) and Immigration New Zealand and may be used for applications for recognition of overseas qualifications and visa applications.
You may need a translation of overseas qualifications and transcripts when applying for visas such as skilled migrant or Silver Fern visas. Qualifications translations may also be needed for employers to understand your previous qualifications, or in order to assess previous study when applying for a New Zealand education program, or for teacher registration.
You may need to get a Pre-Assessment Result (PAR) of your qualifications from NZQA when submitting an expression of interest with Immigration New Zealand. This will give you an indication of where your qualification will fit in the New Zealand education system.
You may also need to apply for an International Qualifications Assessment (IQA) of your qualifications from NZQA, which is a more in-depth assessment, if you receive an invitation to apply from Immigration New Zealand or for teacher registration in New Zealand. You can use the IQA result for registration with professional or industry bodies, employers or New Zealand government departments including Immigration New Zealand.
You may need to apply to NZQA for an Overseas Study Assessment (OSA) if you are a New Zealand resident completing a qualification outside of New Zealand and need to apply to Inland Revenue (IRD) New Zealand for tax purposes.
Please see the International Qualifications page on the NZQA website for more details.
