MBIE is committed to improving the wellbeing of all New Zealanders. They offer regulation and advice to other government departments, encourage innovation and creative thinking for now and the future, support and encourage investments for the economy, manage immigration balanced with domestic talent and much, much more.

As the New Zealand Government’s lead business-facing agency, MBIE has the opportunity to directly influence the way business is done in New Zealand — through face-to-face contact with ministers, influencing legislation and day-to-day interaction with stakeholders.

Service Delivery is a part of MBIE, and works with businesses, employees and consumers. They hold people accountable to the rules set for the market in a way that ensures businesses thrive and New Zealanders are protected.

Immigration New Zealand is also part of MBIE, and looks after New Zealand’s immigration rules and laws, which in turn support our country’s economic growth and strengthen our relationship with other parts of the world. Whether it’s visiting, working, studying, living, or investing – chances are the people at the Immigration Contact Centres play an important part in enabling a person’s opportunity to contribute to New Zealand.
