New Zealand Bars Certain Jobs for Student Visa Holders

New Zealand has published a list detailing jobs that international students holding study visas are barred from undertaking. According to information shared on New Zealand's official immigration website, student visa holders cannot be self-employed and must work under a formal employment agreement with a registered employer.

The government has identified three specific types of work that are entirely off-limits for foreign students, including working as a call girl, operating a call girl business, and investing in such businesses. These restrictions apply universally to all international students on study visas and are presented as non-negotiable conditions for visa eligibility.

While New Zealand allows international students to work a limited number of hours during their studies, the outlined categories are treated as prohibited activities. Students found in violation of these conditions risk facing consequences under New Zealand's immigration laws.
