Before you ship to New Zealand

Tax-free limit
NZ$1,000 (about US$570) per shipment. Customs collects no duty or GST on a shipment worth NZ$1,000 or less, except on alcohol and tobacco, which are taxed at any value. Several orders from the same supplier that arrive on the same day count as one shipment. Since April 1, 2026, gifts have no separate concession: a gift worth NZ$1,000 or less comes in free, and one worth more pays duty and GST like any other goods. On low-value shipments the courier pays a small goods levy (NZ$2.21 plus GST by air, about US$1.50) and may pass it on.
Receiver ID
No tax number is needed for a personal shipment. At NZ$1,000 or more, including gifts, the receiver needs a Customs Number, applied for on form NZCS 224A with a copy of photo ID. Apply before the boxes arrive.
Transit
2-4 business days from Australia; 4-7 from Asia, North America, or Europe
