New Zealand Traveler Declaration

The New Zealand Traveler Declaration (NZTD) — also sometimes regarded as the “New Zealand Arrival Card” in its digital form — is an online registration system introduced by New Zealand immigration and border authorities to simplify the entry process for international travelers. As of 2023–2024, the traditional paper “Passenger Arrival Card” has been replaced by NZTD for most incoming travelers.

Instead of filling a paper form on the plane or upon arrival, visitors now have the option to submit their arrival information digitally — via the official NZTD website or the companion mobile app — before travelling to New Zealand.

The online declaration collects essential personal, travel, customs, biosecurity and immigration information — submitted directly to the relevant border, customs, biosecurity and immigration agencies — to support identity verification and smooth immigration clearance.

Completing the NZTD in advance helps ensure a faster, more convenient arrival experience for tourists, business travellers, students, or those visiting friends or family. By registering online before arrival, travelers can reduce wait times at immigration and be well prepared to meet New Zealand’s entry requirements.

Whether you are arriving to explore urban hubs like Auckland or Wellington, enjoy the natural landscapes of the South Island, or visit for business or study — completing the NZTD online before arrival is an essential step.
