Frequently Asked Questions β€” Sweden & NZeTA

Do Swedish citizens need a visa for New Zealand?
Swedish 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 Swedish citizens stay in New Zealand?
With an NZeTA, Swedish 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 Swedish 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 Swedish 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 Sweden passport. Airlines and border control can verify it automatically. You do not need a physical copy, though keeping the email confirmation is advised.
Can Swedish 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.
