Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a visa for New Zealand?

It depends on your passport. Choose the country that issued the passport you will travel with from the list or map to see the visa rule, documents and official next steps for New Zealand.

Why do I need to choose my passport first?

The visa rule is set for each passport and destination pair, so the same trip can be visa-free for one passport and require an application for another. Where you legally live can also affect where and how you apply — your route's page covers those details.
