The role of Immigration is to ensure our borders are protected at points of entry by effectively screening visitors to the Cook Islands and to facilitate the movement of natural persons into and out of the country.
How long can I stay for on an entry permit?

An entry permit (with employment priveleges i.e work permit) allows employees into the country for a period of 12 months after which an application for extension of the entry permit will need to be sought from the Immigration Division.

An entry permit exemption allows bona-fide visitors a stay of not more than 31 days. Bona-fide visitors may extend their stay beyond 31 days by making an application at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Immigration (MFAI).  Extensions of stay may be granted on application on a monthly basis for up to a maximum stay of 6 months.
