What New Zealand may ask for

Not every traveller is asked for all of these. A valid passport is checked every time; the rest is a spot check at the border, and some items belong to a visa application rather than the crossing itself.

  • Passport valid 3+ months beyond departure
  • Return ticket or funds to purchase one
  • NZD 1,000/month or NZD 400/month if prepaid
  • Travel insurance highly recommended
  • Clean biosecurity declaration required
  • IVL levy payment (NZD 35) for most visitors
