Orphaned references in Visa policy of New Zealand
editI check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Visa policy of New Zealand's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 04:31, 20 November 2017 (UTC)
'Medical visa requirement to receive medical services' - really?
editI know, this conclusion is what suggests itself after having read NZ gov entry conditions. But this should not be a reason to rush to conclusions.
The right to medical treatment is (to my knowledge) a human right and can probably not be cancelled through a gov directive. Are you telling me NZ police - having caught you exiting from a doctor's practice - will arrest you, cancel your tourist visa and take you to the airport, to be deported from the country on the next flight - such as if you had been caught doing paid work (which you clearly are not allowed to do as a tourist)?
NZ being a proverbial nanny state, isn't it more likely they are trying to create this impression (that you need a medical visa to see a doctor), and that they have worded the conditions in such a tricky way that the average casual reader reaches this conclusion? And their motive probably being, yes we are ready to provide you with medical care, but we don't trust you and must therefore make sure you will pay for it?
I asked the immigration bureaucracy in writing (also higher echelons), before embarking on a recent (also) medical trip. It soon became clear that they were highly interested in selling their medical visa. But they always dodged my question re the alleged obligation.
Conclusion from my recent also 'medical' trip, and without a medical visa: There is no such requirement. Play it fair and tell the doctor you are a foreign tourist and a private patient - meaning, you pay once you leave his practice. Contorista (talk) 03:58, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
Visa requirements for Thai citizens
editWhy did New Zealand ever exempt a visa for Thai citizens from 1987 until December 2000? PhilTheGreatLOL (talk) 16:32, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
