What should I bear in mind when moving to New Zealand?
Moving to New Zealand requires an accurate declaration to customs. You must provide a complete list of all items you are bringing with you, especially for valuable items such as electronics, furniture or works of art. New Zealand has very strict regulations regarding the import of food, plants and animals, which is why these are often subject to special controls. Certain products such as meat, fruit, fresh food or plants are strictly prohibited, while others, such as animal products, require a special permit. We can help you draw up a detailed inventory list and complete the necessary customs formalities to make the move easier.
You need a visa to move to New Zealand, as the country is not part of the EU. As an EU citizen, you can apply for a temporary residence visa or a work visa, depending on whether you want to work there or just move. You must also apply for a residence permit on arrival. You will also need to register with the local residents' registration office or immigration authorities. We will support you in applying for the right visa and help you to compile the necessary documents for your stay.
New Zealand has very strict import regulations, especially for food, plants, animals and even certain medicines. All foodstuffs that you wish to import must comply with health regulations and are often thoroughly checked. Pets require a health certificate and a valid vaccination, and plants are also prohibited in many cases. There are strict rules for importing used items such as clothing or appliances that need to be cleaned. We will inform you of all relevant regulations and ensure that your removal goods meet the strict requirements.
