Understanding New Zealand customs and import regulations
When sending a parcel to New Zealand, it is important to be aware of New Zealand customs requirements. All goods arriving by post or carrier are subject to customs duties and the goods and services tax (GST). Customs may inspect parcels, and you must ensure all documentation is accurate to avoid delays.
If your parcel’s value exceeds NZ$1000 or is for commercial purposes, a customs export clearance is required. Goods are stored by freight and postal companies until customs clearance is processed. Most facilities propose complimentary storage for three to four days, after which additional fees may apply. Act quickly to avoid extra charges or the risk of your parcel being returned to the sender.
Low value imported goods and GST
Recent changes in New Zealand’s tax law mean that low value imported goods-those valued at NZ$1000 or less-are now subject to goods and services tax. Overseas businesses selling these goods directly to New Zealand consumers must register for, collect, and return GST. This ensures fair competition for domestic retailers. The NZ$1000 threshold is based on the customs value, excluding transport and insurance costs. If GST is already collected at the point of sale, it is noted in the customs documentation. If not, GST may be charged at the border.
Prohibited and restricted items: stay compliant
New Zealand customs enforce strict rules on prohibited items and restricted items. Sending prohibited goods can result in fines. Restrictions vary by item, so always consult the latest guidelines. For example, certain types of alcohol, antiques, and batteries have specific packaging and value requirements. Some items, such as live animals or hazardous materials, may not be sent at all. Always check country specific restrictions to avoid issues.

Country specific restrictions and compliance
Every country has its own regulations, and New Zealand is no exception. Country specific restrictions apply to a range of products, including food, plants, and certain electronics. Restrictions vary, so it is vital to review the latest guidelines before sending parcels to New Zealand. Our customer support team can assist you with any questions about restricted or prohibited items.
Postage to New Zealand: what to expect
Postage to New Zealand involves more than just choosing a delivery service. Customs paperwork is required for most items. Certificates of origin may be necessary, especially for motor vehicle parts or when claiming preferential trade rates. Always check whether your item falls under restricted or prohibited categories before sending.
