New Zealand to fully reopen borders to welcome skilled workers

New Zealand is one of the beautiful countries with a dazzling wealth of mind-blowing sceneries and fun-loving people. It also offers luscious wine, a vibe, and mouth-watering food. New Zealand is on the 9th rank in the world happiness report.

Abstract: New Zealand is one of the first countries to get vaccinations done before even the omicron swept through this year. With this step, 5 million population New Zealand has eliminated many virus breakouts. During covid-19, New Zealand has imposed the world's strictest rules for international borders for almost two years.

Highlights 

Like all other countries, New Zealand is ready to open its borders to allow tourists from all the countries from July. The New Zealand government is also planning to allow back cruise ships to make things easier for skilled workers worldwide.

Since the pandemic, the death toll rate for New Zealand was always far below compared to that of many developed nations. As the pandemic has been prolonged, the strict rules, measures, and obligations mentioned by New Zealand became outdated because almost all the other countries have opened up.

New Zealand started opening its border gradually in the April month of 2022.

Prime Minister Jacinda Adern's announcement

Jacinda Adern "New Zealand reopens completely to the World from July 31st after restoring a two-month work schedule and preparation. The new immigration settings will help skilled workers to enter July with a new 'green list' of desired professions that include Engineers, Teachers, Doctors, nurses, Tech workers, and plumbers. The new announcement will alleviate the urgent need for skills shortage created during COVID."

Pre-Pandemic Statistics

Before the pandemic hit the world, New Zealand had almost 3 million tourists every year. This results in giving 20% of New Zealand's foreign income and more than 5% of the total economy. New Zealand's business leaders and tourism people have also liked this announcement.
