Travel to New Zealand

New Zealand’s borders are currently closed to almost all travellers to help stop the spread of COVID-19. Arrivals are required to undergo either managed isolation or quarantine for at least 14 days.

• Overseas vaccinations

Almost all travellers are legally required to have a voucher confirming their place in managed isolation before boarding their flight. This includes travellers returning from quarantine-free entry to Australia. Air passengers from the Cook Islands can travel quarantine-free into New Zealand.
