New Zealand - Working & Living

New Zealand in Cadogan's Working and Living guide series; targeted at those who are moving abroad to live and work. The guides provide an unrivalled wealth of expert legal and financial advice and guidance on tackling red tape. They examine and recommend the best places to live and work, incorporating both places in the city and in the countryside, in addition to discussing the benefits and pitfalls of employment, going freelance or starting your own business. Written by authors who have lived and worked in each country, they also offer the personal experiences of people who have already overcome the challenges of emigrating. Individual titles have the same structure guiding readers through the emigration process. Extensive introductory chapters help acquaint readers with the country, with information such as climate, geography and history in addition to comprehensive profiles of each region. A Chapter on the country ‘today' illuminates issues such as the major political parties, religion, major media and food and wine. There are also dedicated chapters on First Steps – including the reasons for emigrating to the country and how to get there – and Red Tape, covering issues such as visas, permits and paperwork, tax, residency requirements, administrative departments and citizenship.
