Visa for Australian pr with indian passport
Hi,
I have been living in Sydney for a year and half with pr visa and indian passport.
My company has asked me to go to Wellington for a business trip.
I wanted to know if I need to get a visa for this, so I called the nz embassy in Sydney and asked they said it was not required. I am not sure if my understanding is correct or I asked the question incorrectly.
Thanks for the clarification

From the immigration website:
You do not need a work visa to work in New Zealand if you are:
a New Zealand citizen or you hold a New Zealand residence class visa, or
an Australian citizen, or the holder of a current Australian permanent residence visa including a current Australian resident return visa. (If there are conditions on your residence visa/resident return visa, then you will require a work visa.)

an Australian citizen, or the holder of a current Australian permanent residence visa including a current Australian resident return visa. (If there are conditions on your residence visa/resident return visa, then you will require a work visa.)

Re: Visa for Australian pr with indian passport
Do I need to apply for a Business Visitor Visa?
You do not need to apply for a Business Visitor Visa prior to travel, if:
1.You have not already exceeded the maximum stay as a Business Visitor of three months in a calendar year (looking at the 12 months immediately before your upcoming travel to NZ); and
2.You are a Citizen of one of the countries listed on our Visa Waiver list.
You will still need to meet the requirements for Visitors from Visa Waiver countries.

You should be issued a residence class visa on arrival in NZ. It does however mention that the rules are different if you are a temporary resident in Australia
