This section is for guidance only. With the information available it is not possible to be specific as to the relevance of documents and experience from China to the classes of registration in New Zealand. The actual class of registration for which a person from China may be able to apply for can only be taken on a case-by-case basis on the information supplied by the applicant. Generally, they will need to have the following:
1. Documentation showing graduation from course at a vocational secondary school, skilled worker school, secondary technical school or advanced vocational school. Most courses are of 2 to 4 years duration.
Evidence of work experience at:
- Grades 4,5 or 6 or Medium Grade (skilled worker level)
or
- Grades 7, or 8 or High Grade (special class or master level)
or
2. Documentation that shows the serving of an electrical apprenticeship and, at least, graduation from a skilled worker school course in the electrical trades.
Evidence of work experience at:
- Grades 4,5 or 6 or Medium Grade (skilled worker level)
or
- Grades 7, or 8 or High Grade (special class or master level)
The type of training course and work experience will determine the class of registration for which they will be eligible.

要在紐西蘭取得電業工程人員資格，首先要在自己的居住地找律師進行正本認證 (Certified of True Copy) 或把正本帶到紐西蘭找太平紳在副本上簽名蓋印，這會是免費，但要預約。然後在EWRB下載上格，填寫後,用支票或信用卡進行繳費,當然如果你沒有紐西蘭支票戶口，便只能便用信用卡了。可以以郵寄或以素描版本在網上提交。
在香港的紐西蘭領事館所做的正本認證 (Certified of True Copy) ，EWRB是不承認的。EWRB雖然承認中國的認證機構，但中國的認證機構不會為香港的文件進行正本認證，因此可以省回時間及車資了。除了律師進行正本認證，目前有兩人去民政事務處宣誓，而又成功過關(不保證日後也可以順利過關)。
以目前所知，如非學徒出身的香港申請人，也可以成功申請電工的限制牌照，但學徒畢業的申請人亦可能只批出 EST - Electrical Service Technician，成巧與否只有看你的申請文件及EWRB的評審結果，不過亦可能批出 EE - Electrical Engineer，如果不希望一步到位，只要不提供大學學歷給 EWRB，因為申請工程師資格必須有大學學歷。
