New Zealand: how do I apply for an NZeTA?

New Zealand is a country with great tourist potential. Every year, just over a million visitors set foot in the country. In view of this large number of registered tourists, the New Zealand government has decided to revitalise and digitise visa applications. Hence the creation of NZeTA. If you're planning to visit New Zealand, take a look at this article to find out how to get your visa.

How do I apply for the NZeTA?

There are several ways to apply for a New Zealand travel permit. You can choose between the New Zealand authorities' online services and online visa application sites.

Apply on the authorities' website

To make an online application on the authorities' website, you first need to know that the New Zealand government has set up several online application platforms. To apply, you need to go through the following three steps:

  1. filling in the form ;
  2. payment by credit card ;
  3. receipt of your NZETA.

You will need these documents and information to complete the form and pay the application fee. These are :

  • a valid passport ;
  • a digital passport photo with a white background ;
  • a passport photo
  • an electronic means of payment;
  • a valid e-mail address (this will be used when you receive your NZETA);
  • a reason for travelling ;
  • a home address ;
  • means of subsistence ;
  • possession of a return or onward ticket, where applicable.

In addition, there is another way to apply for NzETA. This is the mobile application set up by the New Zealand government. You simply need to fill in a few details relating to an e-visa application. The advantage is that via the app, processing fees are more affordable. Beware, however, of the many errors specific to scanning your passport!

Agency procedures are simplified by the possibility of translating the various administrative documents into your local language.

You no longer need to go to the embassy. Personalised assistance is available to help you make your application as easily as possible. All you have to do to apply is fill in an NZeTA application form. You will then receive an e-mail redirecting you to personalised assistance.

The NzETA allows nationals from New Zealand visa-exempt countries to obtain permission to visit or immigrate to New Zealand. It is valid for 2 years from the date of issue.
