International students are being warned against working as prostitutes in a new Immigration New Zealand employment advice website.
The site, www.nzstudywork.com, aims to provide advice and support for international students seeking to work here, says Immigration Minister Michael Woodhouse.
According to the website, jobs that students can't legally do include being self-employed, working as an independent contractor or working in the adult entertainment industry.
"International students also can't provide commercial sexual services," the website said.
"In other words, they can't work as a prostitute, act as an operator of a New Zealand prostitution business or invest in a prostitution business."
