v t e

Non–New Zealand citizens wishing to enter the Realm of New Zealand must obtain a visa unless they are

• a citizen or permanent resident of Australia or
• a citizen of one of the 60 visa waiver eligible countries and territories
• a holder of the United Nations laissez-passer or
• eligible for visa-free travel under other specific provisions (visiting force, cruise ship passengers and crew, aircraft crew, etc.).

Both Australian citizens travelling on a Valid Australian Passport and permanent residents of Australia that present a valid Permanent Visa or Resident Return Visa are deemed to hold resident status in New Zealand upon arrival under the Trans-Tasman travel arrangement.

Visitors must hold passports that are valid for at least 3 months beyond the period of intended stay. Visitors are required to hold proof of sufficient funds to cover their stay: NZD 1,000 per person per month of stay or NZD 400 if accommodation has been prepaid. Visitors are required to hold documents required for their next destination.^[2]
