About the New Zealand eTA visa
New Zealand's authorities have introduced a new visa waiver system. This system aims to improve the assessment process of travellers before their arrival in New Zealand. It will significantly reduce border clearance waiting times and will ultimately strengthen border security.
Do I need to apply for a New Zealand eTA?
You must apply for a New Zealand eTA visa if you are:
- visiting or in transit from a visa waiver country (see below for more information)
- a cruise ship passenger - regardless of your nationality
- or a permanent resident of Australia (Australian citizens do not need NZ eTA)
How long is a New Zealand eTA visa valid for?
This visa is valid for up to two years. You can enter the country multiple times during the validity period.

Good Afternoon, I have just come of the phone with your operator Alan in Kilkenny. It is the first time ever I have come off the phone with a call centre Stress free. If all of your staff are a polite and helpful as this gent, you have in my opinion an excellent workforce. I as of yet do not know if your company can be of assistance, but if you can I will without hesitation be on the phone. I would like to commend you on a customer centre based in Ireland, and the excellent quality of service offered.
