From 1 November 2021, non-New Zealand citizens (including NZ residents & non-residents) aged 17 years and over must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 to enter New Zealand.
New Zealand permanent residents and temporary visa holders are not New Zealand citizens and will need to declare vaccination or exemption:
when booking places in managed isolation and quarantine (MIQ)
when checking in for the flight (evidence will be required), and
to Customs officers in New Zealand (evidence will be required).
The last dose of an approved course of vaccine must have been taken at least 14 days before travel. Travellers who fail to meet requirements will not be permitted to board their flight.
