Important Information
The New Zealand Government has made the following updates to the New Zealand Traveller Declaration (NZTD).
Effective Tuesday 22nd August 2023 – ALL New Zealand airports can now process passengers who have completed a digital New Zealand Traveller Declaration (NZTD) instead of a paper arrival card
Paper arrival cards will continue to be available and are still accepted for passengers who choose to complete a paper arrival card.
NZTD aims to digitize Border processes, and enable more efficient processing of passengers at the NZ Border
All passengers, including children and infants, require their own NZTD (mirroring existing paper arrival cards which are required for every individual)
For more information
The New Zealand Traveller Declaration collects travel, customs, immigration and biosecurity information. It aims to improve the safety and security of New Zealand. It is available for travellers arriving into New Zealand's international airports.
