About ETA to New Zealand
The New Zealand ETA (New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority) is an electronic travel authorization required for citizens of visa-free countries traveling to New Zealand. It is not a visa, but a digital entry permit that must be approved before departure.
New Zealand ETA is mainly used for tourism, business trips, visits to family and friends, and short stays in New Zealand. The application must be submitted before departure and the passenger must have received an approved decision before check-in on the flight.
For Swedish citizens, the New Zealand ETA is mandatory when traveling to New Zealand. The travel authorization applies separately from other immigration rules and does not replace other visa types that may be required for work, study, or long-term stays.
The New Zealand ETA is valid for two years from the date of issue and provides Multiple Entry. You can stay in New Zealand for up to 90 days per entry. The total stay may not exceed six months in any twelve-month period.
You will need the following documents to apply:
- Completed visa application
- Copy of passport information page
- The passport must be valid at least 6 months after the date of entry
- Visa photo
- Booking information or planned itinerary may be needed
New Zealand may change visa rules and document requirements at short notice. It is therefore important to check the current rules before submitting the application.
