A land of snow-capped mountains, mirror lakes and lush forest, New Zealand comes up on many travelers’ bucket lists .

Before you book your flights, however, it’s important to make sure you have all your paperwork in order. We've got all you need to know about whether you need a visa to travel to New Zealand this year.

You may not need a visa but you will need a NZeTA

Residents of Australia  do not need a visa to travel to New Zealand and can easily visit the country. Australian residents can also stay in New Zealand for as long as they like.

In addition, certain  countries and territories have visa waiver agreements with New Zealand, including the USA , the UK  and most European countries. This means that residents from these countries do not need visas to visit New Zealand for up to 90 days.

To enter the country, residents of visa waiver countries need to fill out an  Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA ) before arriving in the country. These can take up to 72 hours to process, so visitors need to fill out the form online before they leave for New Zealand.

Apply online for a visitor visa

Residents of countries that don't have a visa waiver agreement with New Zealand will need to apply for a visitor visa , which allows tourists to spend up to nine months in the country. The easiest way to do this is online. Visas take at least a month to process, so be sure to apply well in advance of your planned trip.

All visitors to New Zealand must have enough funds to cover their stay and proof of onward travel. They must also hold passports that are valid for at least three months after their planned departure dates. 

There are restrictions on what you can bring into New Zealand

As an island country, New Zealand has many rare plants and trees, and a strong commitment to biosecurity. To protect its unique environment, there are strict rules about what is and is not allowed in the country.

Any items which could present a biosecurity risk need to be declared when entering the country, including food, plants, animal products and outdoor equipment. Hiking boots and outdoor gear should be cleaned thoroughly prior to arrival. Travelers should check the guidelines before traveling and ask border staff if they have any doubts about the items they are carrying.

New Zealand offers working holiday visas

For those wanting to stay a little longer,  working holiday visas are available to young people from many different countries. These are usually open to people aged 18 to 30 (or 18 to 35 for some nationalities) who want to travel and work in New Zealand, and are usually valid for up to 12 months, or 23 months for travelers from Canada and 36 months if you're from the UK.

NZ Tourist Visa: Do You Need a Visa to Visit New Zealand?

A guide to the tourist visa (visitor visa) and the nzeta for new zealand.

It’s no secret that the New Zealand borders are pretty strict. Nevertheless, the vast majority of visitors to New Zealand. i.e. people visiting to travel and explore, do not need to apply for a Visitor Visa (Tourist Visa) before arriving in the country. They do, however, need to pay for the NZeTA . Alternatively, there are certain nationalities that will need to apply for a Visitor Visa before arrival. Sounds complicated? We aim to break it down and make the visa process easier to understand in this guide to visas for visiting New Zealand.

What is a Visitor Visa For and How Long Can You Stay in New Zealand on a Tourist Visa?

“Visiting” New Zealand refers to someone temporarily staying in New Zealand without working in the country. The maximum time you can stay in New Zealand as a visitor depends on what country you are from. Read our quick guide below to find out what you need to visit New Zealand.

You Do Not Need to Get a Tourist Visa if…

• You are a New Zealand or Australian citizen
• You have a New Zealand resident visa

New Zealand Visitor Visa Requirements: Conditions for People from a Visa-Waiver Country

From a visa-waiver country? That’s great! This means you don’t have to apply for a visa before you come to New Zealand. However, there are a few things you should be aware of before arriving in the country.

You must make sure you:

• have paid the NZeTA and IVL (see section below)
• complete the “ Traveller Declaration ” during the flight to New Zealand or online 24 hours before travel
• have a passport that is valid three months beyond the date you intend to leave New Zealand
• have evidence for sufficient funds and onward travel (see the section below)
• stay in New Zealand for nine months or less in an 18-month period
• have no intention of studying or working in New Zealand (for that, you would need a working holiday visa or student visa , for example).

Please note that, as a citizen of a visa-waiver country, your visitor visa will be granted at the airport on arrival in New Zealand. It will usually be electronic, meaning that you may not get a visa stamp or label on your passport.

The NZeTA and IVL

Travellers from visa-waiver countries might not have to physically apply for a visitor visa for New Zealand but they do have to request and pay the NZeTA (New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority) and IVL (International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy) before arrival.

How Long Does it Take to Get an NZeTA?

It is best to request them as soon as possible, as it can take up to 72 hours for an NZeTA approval.

How to Get an NZeTA

There are two ways of paying for the NZeTA and IVL:

• Through the Immigration New Zealand Android or Apple App
• Through the Immigration  New Zealand website form .

How Long is the NZeTA Valid?

The NZeTA and IVL are valid for multiple visits and transits to New Zealand for up to two years.

For more information on the NZeTA and IVL, take a look at the  What You Need to Know About the New Zealand ETA & Visitor Levy and the 10 Things You Need to Know About the NZETA .

Evidence of Sufficient Funds and Onward Travel for Visitors and Tourists

Whether you have a New Zealand tourist visa (visitor visa) or an NZeTA, you will need to prepare some documents to present to the immigration officer on arrival in New Zealand. It’s true that these documents are not always asked for, but the time you risk it will no doubt be the time that you need the documents. You will need evidence of onward travel and evidence of sufficient maintenance funds while you are in the country.

What Type of Onward Travel Evidence is Accepted?

• Travel tickets (can be confirmed or open-dated) out of New Zealand.
• Written confirmation from an airline or travel agency that onward travel is booked and paid.
• Anything that demonstrates a confirmed departure from New Zealand , like a yacht or private aircraft departure.

How Much Funds Do You Need to Visit New Zealand?

In other words, how much money do you need in your bank account to go to New Zealand? You need to provide evidence to show you have either NZ$1,000 per month that you intend to stay in New Zealand or NZ$400 per month with evidence that you have paid for accommodation. ( Learn more about the New Zealand currency here ).

What Types of Fund Evidence are Accepted?

• Bank drafts
• Bank statements in your name
• Letters of credit
• Photocopies of travellers’ cheques.

Not from a Visa-Waiver Country?

… then you will need to apply for a new zealand tourist visa (visitor visa) before arrival.

Sure, it’s a bit more hassle, but nothing that a bit of forward planning can’t handle.

How to Get a New Zealand Tourist Visa (Visitor Visa)

Those from countries not listed on the visa-waiver list must print and fill out the Visitor Visa Application (INZ 1017) form and send the paper application to your nearest Immigration New Zealand office. You can find the address on the Office and Fee Finder . Your visitor visa must be accepted before you enter New Zealand.

In order to complete the visitor visa application form, you need the following:

• The appropriate fee (see the Office and Fee Finder )
• Two passport-sized coloured photos
• Your passport or travel document
• If required, a medical and x-ray certificate (in most cases it is not required)
• Evidence of sufficient funds to support your stay (see the section above)
• Evidence of onward travel (see the section above).

Note that those who have to apply and pay for a visitor visa are not required to pay the NZeTA and IVL .

How Long Does it Take to Get an NZ Visitor Visa?

Processing times for visas fluctuate but Immigration New Zealand is known for processing 90% of Visitor Visa applications within 37 weekdays. See the latest processing time on this page of the Immigration New Zealand website .

Entry requirements.

This advice reflects the UK government’s understanding of current rules for people travelling on a full ‘British citizen’ passport from the UK, for the most common types of travel.

The authorities in New Zealand set and enforce entry rules. If you’re not sure how these requirements apply to you, contact the New Zealand High Commission in the UK .

COVID-19 rules

There are no COVID-19 testing or vaccination requirements for travellers entering New Zealand.

Passport validity requirements

To enter New Zealand, your passport must have an ‘expiry date’ at least 3 months after the day you plan to leave. If you’re travelling through another country on your way to or from New Zealand, check the entry requirements for that country. Many countries will only allow entry if you have at least 6 months validity remaining on your passport. Renew your passport if you need to.

You will be denied entry if you do not have a valid travel document or try to use a passport that has been reported lost or stolen.

Visa requirements

You do not need a visa to enter New Zealand if you are a visitor staying less than 6 months. You do need a New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority ( NZeTA ).

At New Zealand border control, you will also need to show that you meet the criteria for visa-free entry:

• proof of a return or onward ticket
• proof that you have enough money for your stay

Check the full criteria on New Zealand Immigration .

New Zealand has strict immigration rules, particularly on employment. Visitors cannot work in New Zealand.

New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority ( NZeTA )

If you are entering without a visa, you need a New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority ( NZeTA ) before you travel. You will also need to pay an International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy when you apply.

Allow up to 72 hours for it to be processed. Your NZeTA is valid for up to 2 years.

Applying for a visa

Check the visa options and costs on New Zealand Immigration .

To extend your visa, first check your visa expiry date on the New Zealand Visa Verification Service . See further information from New Zealand Immigration on how to apply for a visa extension .

Travelling through New Zealand

You will need to get a NZeTA before you travel if you are travelling through New Zealand to another country.

In most cases, transit passengers must hold an NZeTA or transit NZeTA before travel.

Vaccination requirements

At least 8 weeks before your trip, check the vaccinations and certificates you need in TravelHealthPro’s New Zealand guide .

Customs rules

There are strict rules about goods you can take into or out of New Zealand. It is illegal to import most food products. You must declare anything that may be prohibited or subject to tax or duty.

Some products, including wood products, golf clubs, footwear, tents, fishing equipment and items made from animal skin, can carry harmful pests or diseases. Check what items you are permitted to bring into New Zealand . If in doubt, declare items to a Biosecurity New Zealand official or dispose of them in one of the marked bins available at the airport.

If you break any of these rules you could get a fine of up to 100,000 New Zealand dollars or a prison sentence.

Why New Zealand is a Must-Visit Destination

Exploring New Zealand is a must for many reasons. Often called the “Land of the Long White Cloud,” it’s a dream for those who love adventure and nature. The country’s landscapes range from untouched beaches to towering mountains, offering a stunning visual experience that’s hard to match. 

Beyond the picturesque scenery, the indigenous Maori culture brings a distinct flavor to the mix, making your visit more than just a regular destination—it’s like going on a journey to a whole new world! The combination of diverse landscapes and rich cultural heritage sets New Zealand apart, promising an experience that goes beyond the ordinary travel destination.

Planning Your Trip to New Zealand

Best time to visit.

When it comes to planning your New Zealand adventure , timing is key. New Zealand offers a year-round spectacle, but each season unfolds a distinct charm. For the adrenaline junkies, the Southern Hemisphere’s summer (December to February) is perfect for hiking, bungee jumping, and water sports. Winter (June to August) transforms the South Island into a skiing haven. Spring and autumn? They’re the sweet spots for pleasant weather and fewer crowds.

Visa and Entry Requirements

Before packing your bags, ensure you have your paperwork sorted. Most travelers need a visa, and it’s always wise to check New Zealand’s immigration website for the latest requirements. The e-visa process is swift, but don’t leave it for the last minute. Plan ahead to avoid any hiccups and ensure a smooth entry into this Kiwi wonderland.

Getting to and Around New Zealand

Air New Zealand, the country’s flagship carrier, offers convenient connections to major cities like Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch. Once there, renting a car is an excellent option for flexibility. However, the well-connected bus and train networks are worth considering if you prefer a more leisurely approach. The journey is as important as the destination, after all!

Top Destinations in New Zealand

When crafting your New Zealand itinerary, make sure to include the gems that truly capture the essence of this stunning country. Begin your journey on the captivating Waiheke Island, known for its picturesque vineyards and vibrant arts scene. Head south to Lake Tekapo, where the turquoise waters and the iconic Church of the Good Shepherd create a serene backdrop. As you mingle with friendly locals, also known as New Zealander, you’ll experience the warmth and hospitality that defines the Kiwi spirit.

Don’t miss Tongariro National Park, home to the famous Tongariro Alpine Crossing, offering an unforgettable hike amidst volcanic landscapes. Venture further south to Fiordland National Park, where majestic fiords and lush forests paint a breathtaking panorama. 

For a taste of Maori culture, head to the Coromandel Peninsula, where traditional stories and customs come to life. The Southern Alps, towering over the South Island, provide a majestic backdrop to your New Zealand road trip. Explore the East Coast, uncovering hidden gems like the stunning Lake Wakatipu and the charming town of Te Anau, a gateway to the Fiordland region.

As you traverse the landscapes, consider these travel tips: venture into the Waitomo Caves for a mesmerizing glowworm experience, embrace the challenge of the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, and savor the tranquility of Mount Cook National Park. Mount Cook itself, the highest peak in New Zealand, stands as a symbol of the country’s rugged beauty.

New Zealand travel is not complete without a road trip, allowing you to witness the best things the country has to offer. So, gear up for an adventure that takes you from the wonders of the North Island to the glaciers of the South, weaving through diverse landscapes and showcasing the true magic of Aotearoa.

North Island Highlights

Auckland, the City of Sails, welcomes you with its vibrant urban life. Take a stroll along the waterfront or head up the iconic Sky Tower for panoramic views. For nature lovers, the geothermal wonders of Rotorua and the pristine beaches of the Coromandel Peninsula are must-visit gems. As mentioned, don’t forget to immerse yourself in the rich Maori heritage at Waitomo Caves and Te Puia.

South Island Wonders

The South Island is a visual symphony that will leave you breathless. Queenstown NZ , the adventure capital, offers bungee jumping, skydiving, and the breathtaking Milford Sound—a journey through the stunning Abel Tasman National Park, where golden beaches meet lush forests. The Fox and Franz Josef glaciers on the West Coast are nature’s frozen masterpieces, while the Southern Alps provide a dramatic backdrop to it all.

Experiencing Maori Culture and Heritage

No trip to New Zealand is complete without embracing the Maori spirit. Engage in a traditional haka performance, visit a marae (Maori meeting ground), and savor a hangi feast. The cultural richness of the Maori people is woven into the very fabric of New Zealand, adding depth and authenticity to your travel experience.

Local Cuisine and Dining Experiences

Prepare your taste buds for a culinary journey. From the famed Fergburger in Queenstown to the seafood delights of Kaikoura, New Zealand offers a gastronomic adventure. Indulge in a traditional Maori hangi, sample the delectable wines of Hawke’s Bay, and don’t miss the iconic Pavlova for a sweet finale.

Who is it for

Check if you need an NZeTA or a visa before travelling to New Zealand.

Most travellers need either an NZeTA or a visa to travel to New Zealand. This depends on the passport you are travelling on, and if you will be a visitor or a transit passenger .

Check if you need an NZeTA or a visa

You can use your NZeTA to travel to New Zealand multiple times while it is valid. An NZeTA is valid for 2 years for travellers, or 5 years for crew members.

You may not be allowed to visit or transit New Zealand if you do not meet the good character requirements. If you are not sure you will meet the requirements — for example you have a criminal conviction — you should apply for a visa and have one before you travel. Check the character requirements under 'What you need to apply'.

What you need to apply

Visiting new zealand.

'Visiting' means you are entering and staying in New Zealand as a visitor.

If you are passing through a New Zealand airport — other than Auckland International Airport — on your way to another country, you will be a visitor because you have to enter New Zealand. 

If you already have a current New Zealand visa, you do not need an NZeTA.

If you give the wrong information in your NZeTA request, we may give you an NZeTA that only lets you transit through Auckland International Airport as a transit passenger  — you cannot visit New Zealand as a transit passenger.

Arriving on a cruise ship as a passenger

If you are arriving by sea as a cruise ship passenger, you must have an NZeTA — unless you are on the list of travellers who do not need an NZeTA. You can be any nationality.

Travellers who do not need an NZeTA

Arriving by cruise ship

Citizen of a visa waiver country

If you are travelling on a passport from a visa waiver country, you must have an NZeTA — unless you are:

• on the list of travellers who do not need an NZeTA, or
• coming for medical treatment or consultation — you will need to apply for a Medical Treatment Visitor Visa, not an NZeTA. Medical Treatment Visitor Visa

Visa waiver countries and territories

Australian citizen or permanent resident

Australian citizen.

If you are travelling on an Australian passport, you do not need a visa or NZeTA before you travel. We will normally give you an Australian Resident Visa when you arrive — but you must meet the character requirements of this visa.

Australian Resident Visa

You may not be allowed to travel to New Zealand if you do not meet the good character requirements. If you are not sure you will meet requirements — for example you have a criminal conviction or have been deported before — you should apply for a visa and have one before you travel.

Australian permanent resident

If you are an Australian permanent resident wanting to visit New Zealand, you must have an NZeTA — unless you are on the list of travellers who do not need an NZeTA.

You also need:

• a current Australian Permanent Resident Visa or Australian Resident Return Visa — these cannot be 'provisional' visas, and
• travel conditions on that visa to let you return to Australia.

Other visitors who need a visa

You must have a valid visa before you travel to New Zealand, if you are:

• not a citizen of a visa waiver country or territory
• not an Australian permanent resident
• not arriving on a cruise ship, and
• not on the list of travellers who do not need an NZeTA.

If you are coming to New Zealand for medical treatment or consultation, you need to apply for a Medical Treatment Visitor Visa, not an NZeTA.

Medical Treatment Visitor Visa

How long you can visit for

When you arrive at the New Zealand border with your NZeTA, we may give you a visa that lets you stay:

• up to 3 months at a time, or
• up to 6 months at a time if travelling on a UK passport.

We usually give Australian permanent residents and citizens an Australian Resident Visa.

Your visa expires when the 3 months or 6 months have passed — or if you leave earlier. When you arrive in New Zealand next time with an NZeTA, we give you a new visitor visa.

You can only be in New Zealand for up to 6 months within any 12-month period. This period is the 12 months counting back from your intended departure date (when you plan on leaving New Zealand).

You are travelling on a passport from Canada. This means you can stay in New Zealand for visits of up to 3 months. You visit for the first time for 3 months, from 1 January 2023 to 31 March 2023. After your visit, you return home.

You decide you want to make a second visit, again for 3 months. You plan to arrive in New Zealand on 1 July 2023, and leave on 30 September 2023 (your intended departure date). This means you will be in New Zealand for a total of 6 months in the period 1 October 2022 to 30 September 2023 — this is the 12-month period counting back from your intended departure date.

You can make this visit because you will be in New Zealand for no more than 6 months in that 12-month period. Refer to Figure 1.

After your second visit you return home. You decide you want to visit New Zealand again for the whole month of November 2023.

You cannot make this third visit because you will be in New Zealand for a total of 7 months in the period 1 December 2022 to 30 November 2023 — this is the 12-month period counting back from your intended departure date. You can only spend a total of 6 months in New Zealand in any 12-month period. Refer to Figure 2.

Transiting to another country through Auckland International Airport

Some travellers can use an NZeTA to transit Auckland International airport as a transit passenger  on their way to another country. You can stay in the transit area for up to 24 hours and cannot visit New Zealand. Auckland International Airport is the only airport in New Zealand where you can be a transit passenger. 

If you are passing through a different New Zealand airport on your way to another country, you will be a visitor not a transit passenger. This is because there is no transit area, so you have to enter New Zealand. Refer back to the section on 'Visiting New Zealand'.

Check who needs an NZeTA, a Transit Visa or neither to transit through New Zealand.

Transit passengers

Crew member of a cruise ship or commercial airline

You need to get a Crew ETA through your employer if you are a crew member of a:
