Passengers can apply for a Traveller NZeTA via the app or on our website from 3 February 2025.
From 3 February 2025 a registered cargo carrier will be able to request Crew NZeTAs on behalf of their crew heading to New Zealand via the Batch ETA system.
Cargo carriers can request an onboarding package for the Batch ETA system by emailing Immigration New Zealand.
We strongly encourage carriers to start requesting NZeTAs for crew members as soon as possible before 1 April 2025 to ensure all maritime crew meet the new requirements before they come into effect.
The requirements will enhance border security by using digital solutions to make travel easier now and in the future. Immigration New Zealand has been working with cargo carriers to ensure they understand these new requirements and can secure ETAs for a smooth transition in April.
The NZeTA costs between NZD$17 and NZD$23 for each traveller, and it is valid for 2 years for visitors and up to 5 years for crew members. Most passengers must also pay the International Visitor and Conservation Levy of NZD$100 at the same time as paying for their NZeTA.
