New to NZ

Welcome to New Zealand! Play video New to New Zealand [3.94 MB]

Did you know that New Zealand is one of the few countries in the world that allows Deaf and hearing impaired refugees and immigrants to enter the country?

If you arrive as a refugee, you will live at Auckland's Mangere Refugee Centre for a minimum of six weeks before settling in the wider community. Many refugees choose to settle in Auckland.

Wherever you choose to live, we're here to help you. We have 12 offices throughout New Zealand. Our friendly skilled staff can provide advice and information and help you access the services you need to adjust to your new life New Zealand.
