Description
NZeTA – Get it before you go
Download this free official New Zealand government app and use it to request your NZeTA and pay the IVL. The app is the fastest way to request an NZeTA and should take you less than 5 minutes.
You can use the app to scan your passport to upload your details and scan your credit or debit card for ease of payment.
You can request and pay for up to 10 NZeTAs in one transaction for your family or group.
What are the NZeTA & IVL?
The NZeTA is a border security measure introduced by the New Zealand Government on 1 October 2019.
To find out more, visit the Immigration New Zealand website. https://www.immigration.govt.nz/nzeta
Most visitors coming to New Zealand must pay an International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy (IVL). The IVL is a way for you to contribute directly to the tourism infrastructure you use and help protect the natural environment you enjoy during your stay in New Zealand. For more information on the IVL, visit this website https://www.mbie.govt.nz/immigration-and-tourism/tourism/tourism-funding/international-visitor-conservation-and-tourism-levy/.

Ratings and Reviews
Very hit-and-miss
Had three people to apply for visas for a family trip. First person competed their application fine, but was unable to add any more people on that device due to a t&c’s accept button being missing on an iPhone 14, so had to use another device. Second person on iPad Mini was able to apply no problem, and was able to start application for the last person.
Third person was able to scan passport, but trying to scan their face was impossible. Was instant for first two people. Tried on multiple other iOS devices in the exact same scenarios, lighting and positions but couldn’t get it to work. Third person was forced to apply using the website which costs slightly more.
Still pending
App didn’t update when the visa was approved and ended up having a difficult conversation with check in crew because I couldn’t find the email that had been sent saying the visa had been improved. Please fix the bugs as this may have been the difference between me being allowed in or not!
Super Fast Application
Was worried after reading the reviews but upon downloading the app all you need to do is scan your passport and then take a picture of yourself. Once you’ve done this you answer a few simple questions and make your payment. Within 5 minutes my NZeTA had been issued. Super easy process with absolutely no problems at all.
