TRAVEL DETAILS

Carbon offsets
We recognise that many participants will be concerned about long-distance travel to New Zealand for a conference.
For participants who wish to offset the carbon used in air travel to New Zealand we recommend the New Zealand-based carboNZero programme.


Visa Requirements

Currently travellers from more than 50 countries do not require a Visitors Visa for stays less than 3 months. You do not need a visa or permit to visit New Zealand if you are:
  • A citizen of a country which has a visa waiver agreement with NZ. Click here to find out more; 
  • A New Zealand citizen or Resident Permit Holder;
  • An Australian citizen travelling on an Australian Passport;
  • An Australian resident with a current Australian resident return visa.
However, all visitors require:
  • A passport that is valid for at least three months after your departure from New Zealand;
  • An onward or return ticket to a country that you have permission to enter;
  • Sufficient money to support yourself during your stay, approximately NZ$1,000 per month per person.

Customs Requirements

New Zealand has strict rules to protect its agricultural industries from imported pests and diseases. If you bring in items such as food and plants, these must be declared to Ministry of Agriculture and Farming Officials.
Click here to visit  New Zealand Immigration site  for more information.

Like other countries, New Zealand has strict security concerning drugs, firearms and other dangerous goods. For more information, click here to visit New Zealand Bio Security site.

Health Insurance & Vaccinations Requirements

We recommend that you have comprehensive medical insurance for the duration of your visit. If you are from the United Kingdom or Australia, you will get the same immediate medical coverage as a New Zealand citizen or resident due to the Reciprocal Health Agreements.

Vaccinations are required if travelling to New Zealand from yellow-fever-infected area. This is most likely to affect delegates travelling to New Zealand from certain regions in Latin America or Africa. Please check with your local travel agent or health centre for the vaccination requirements.
