Unpopular Traveller Declaration to Return and Replace Passenger Arrival Cards from June
January 11, 2023
Travel often and you’ll be well acquainted with the little card you must fill out when flying into Aotearoa.
The one with dozens of little questions that ask a range of questions about you, your travels and what’s in your bag.
However, by June 30, these paper Passenger Arrival Cards will become a relic of the past; replaced by a fancy online system called the New Zealand Traveller Declaration.
Anyone who travelled last year may be familiar with the system, which was launched in March 2022 to collect Covid-19 documentation and information from people entering New Zealand after the borders reopened.
The requirement was stopped in October, however, the same system will be used to host a new, updated declaration form, which will replace the paper forms.
