Frequently Asked Questions — Hong Kong & NZeTA

Do Hong Kong citizens need a visa for New Zealand?
Hong Kong citizens do not need a traditional visa for New Zealand. Instead, they must obtain a New Zealand NZeTA (Electronic Travel Authority) before travelling. The NZeTA is applied for online and is linked to your passport.
How long can Hong Kong citizens stay in New Zealand?
With an NZeTA, Hong Kong citizens can stay in New Zealand for up to 90 days per visit. The NZeTA itself is valid for up to 2 years, allowing multiple visits within that period.
How long does NZeTA approval take for Hong Kong applicants?
Most NZeTA applications are approved within 72 hours. We recommend applying at least 72 hours before your departure to ensure you receive your approval in good time.
How much does the NZeTA cost for Hong Kong citizens?
The NZeTA fee includes the application processing charge plus the mandatory International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy (IVL). Visit our fees page for full pricing details.
Do I need to print my NZeTA?
No. Your NZeTA is electronically linked to your Hong Kong passport. Airlines and border control can verify it automatically. You do not need a physical copy, though keeping the email confirmation is advised.
Can Hong Kong citizens work in New Zealand on an NZeTA?
No. The NZeTA is for tourism, visiting family and friends, or short business trips only. It does not permit paid employment in New Zealand. If you plan to work, you must apply for a separate work visa.
