A New Zealand visa for other nationals is required for visits of up to 90 days.
Valid passport holders can enter New Zealand at the New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA) for a period of 90 days without obtaining a visa to New Zealand from the Netherlands, under the visa waiver program that started in 2009. Since July 2019, citizens from other countries require an eTA for New Zealand.
A New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA) is not optional, but a mandatory requirement for all Dutch nationals traveling to the country for short stays. Before traveling to New Zealand, a traveler must ensure that the passport is valid for at least three months after the expected departure date.
New Zealand Visa for other nationals consists of an online application form that can be completed in less than five (5) minutes. Applicants must provide personal information, their contact information, such as e-mail and address, and information on the passport page. The applicant must be in good health and must not have a criminal history.
After people have paid New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA) fees, the processing of their eTA application begins. New Zealand eTA is delivered by e-mail. If further documentation is required, the applicant will be contacted prior to approval by the New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA).
To enter New Zealand, people will require a valid travel document or passport to apply for the New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA). Citizens who have passports with extra nationality must ensure that they apply with the same passport they are traveling with, as the New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA) for New Zealand will be associated with the passport mentioned at the time of application.
Applicants will also require a valid credit or debit card or PayPal account to pay the New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA). The fee for the New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA) covers eTA tax and tourist tax. People are also required to provide a valid email address, in order to receive NZeTA in their inbox. It will be your responsibility to carefully double-check all data provided so that there are no issues with the New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA), otherwise you may need to apply for another NZeTA.
The departure date must be within 3 months of arrival. In addition, a person can only visit for 6 months – 12 months on an NZeTA.
A passport holder is required to obtain a New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA) even for a short duration of 1 day up to 90 days. If a person intends to stay for a longer period, they should apply for a relevant visa depending on the circumstances.
