NZeTA is the Electronic Travel Authorization (Visa Exemption) for New Zealand. The acronym stands for New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority. Those who apply for the NZeTA online do not need to get the visa stamped in their passports at the embassy. The NZeTA is digitally linked to the passport upon issue and is comparable to the eTA for Australia.

It is mandatory for residents of 60+ countries, along with cruise travelers, to carry a genuine and authentic passport and be under the Waiver nation tag. All airline and cruise lines citizens and crew members must have a valid visa while traveling to New Zealand.
