If you remain in New Zealand after your visa expires, you become unlawful in New Zealand and therefore become liable for deportation. Liability for deportation can also arise in certain other situations. You may be able to appeal against your deportation liability, depending on your circumstances and the time the liability arose.
You can become liable for deportation if:
If you are deported, you may not return while any prohibition period is in force and until any costs of deportation are repaid. If you wish to return to New Zealand, you can ask to be granted a visa via a special direction.
