Visa Information For New Zealand Visa Application Requirements For Israeli Citizens

United States, 25th Aug 2024 - NEW ZEALAND VISA FOR ISRAELI CITIZENS: Travelers from Israel and nationals of 190 other countries with visa exemption must acquire a visa waiver prior to visiting New Zealand. The NZeTA permits eligible individuals to visit New Zealand for tourism, business, or transit without the need for a visa from the embassy. If you are not required to obtain a visa for New Zealand, you must apply for an ETA instead. Citizens of Israel can apply for a New Zealand Tourist eTA if their visit to New Zealand is less than 90 days in duration. The New Zealand government implemented the New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (eTA) on October 1, 2019. Israel-issued transit and tourism eTAs for New Zealand allow multiple entries/transits and remain valid for two years from the date of issuance. The NZ eTA application process is simple and can be completed from a computer, tablet or smartphone from anywhere in the world. Israelis do not need to go to a New Zealand embassy to apply. This is a very quick process that can be completed in minutes. 

WHAT ARE THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A NEW ZEALAND ETA FOR THE CITIZENS OF ISRAEL?

• Valid passport: Make sure that the passport remains valid for at least another 6 months from the date of arrival in New Zealand. It should also have one blank page available for stamping.
• Travel dates: Your arrival and departure dates.
• E-mail address: You will receive confirmation reference number via email. You will need it when you arrive in New Zealand. You can print it out or keep it on your phone.
• Payment: You can use a credit or debit card to pay for the NZeTA fees.

NEW ZEALAND TRANSIT VISA

Each year, countless people travel to various places. Unfortunately, not all flights can be completed in a solitary, nonstop journey. Many countries offer transit visas to tourists who will just be passing through on their way to their final destination. Visitors to New Zealand without a visa can apply for the New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA). These individuals, known as transit passengers, travel through New Zealand on their way to another location. Every traveler passing through Auckland International Airport must have a NZeTA transit pass. Those who do not qualify for NZeTA transit need to apply for a transit visa while in New Zealand. The NZeTA program, an electronic visa waiver initiative, started functioning in July 2019. Visa waiver nationals, as well as cruise ship passengers of all nationalities, permanent residents of Australia, and transit passengers, must now obtain the eTA NZ in order to travel to New Zealand. The New Zealand eTA is valid for two years and allows numerous entries for short-term visits. The airline and cruise crew eTA New Zealand is valid for 5 years from the date of approval. It is not necessary to apply for an eTA before each transit through the country. Eligible citizens can apply online using the simple New Zealand eTA application.

DOCUMENTS REQUIRED FOR NEW ZEALAND TRANSIT VISA

• A passport that is valid for at least three months from the planned date of arrival.
• Arrival and departure dates.
• To pay the appropriate eTA fees, you'll need a valid credit or debit card. 
• A valid email address so you can receive your authorized New Zealand eTA in your Inbox.
• A recent passport-style photograph of the applicant

OVERSTAY ON NEW ZEALAND VISA

The Immigration Act of 2009 requires all unauthorized immigrants to leave New Zealand. Tourists must leave New Zealand before their temporary visa expires, as indicated on their visa. Overstayers must understand that unless there are compelling reasons for a visa extension, they must leave New Zealand or face deportation. The visa holder must ensure that their visa is still valid. Various methods are used to detect overstayers, such as accessing public information, conducting regular compliance checks, and reviewing data from the New Zealand Police. If you stay in New Zealand beyond the expiration of your visa, you are violating the law. The following are some of the dangers of overstaying:

• You are unable to study or work and must pay for your medical expenses.
• If you stay in the country for 42 days or more without a valid visa, you may be barred from returning.
• Except in very exceptional circumstances, an overstayed New Zealand visa or NZeTA is unlikely to be renewed.
• Overstayers, regardless of nationality, must understand that if no unusual circumstances warrant the granting of a visa, they must depart New Zealand or face deportation.

NEW ZEALAND VISA WITH DUAL CITIZENSHIP

To make sure your immigration documents are correct at both points of departure and arrival, use the same passport for both when traveling with dual citizenship. If you come to New Zealand with an Australian passport, you must use it when traveling to and from your destination country. Border/customs officers will examine the expiry date on your passport to determine if you are allowed entry into New Zealand. To be eligible for traveling to New Zealand with an NZeTA instead of a visa, you must hold a passport from a country that is included in the visa waiver list. You need to inform us about any additional countries you hold citizenship in. If the other country accepts dual citizenship, you can keep your citizenship there. Some countries require you to first obtain permission from them. If the other country does not permit dual citizenship, you may lose your former citizenship when you obtain New Zealand citizenship.

NEW ZEALAND VISA TRANSFER TO NEW PASSPORT

You must transfer your current visa to the new passport before embarking on a trip if you have recently obtained a new passport. This applies to both conventional visas and electronic visas. Visas issued via letter are also known as eVisas. Visa labels are stickers that are attached to your passport. Both are linked to your passport in our database. Applying for an eVisa is recommended because it is the quickest way to transfer your visa to a new passport without any application fees. This is a task that can be accomplished online. A physical document called a paper visa is attached to the traveler's passport, whereas a NZ Travel Authority and an eVisa are both delivered to the applicant via email. Individuals with New Zealand visas are able to retain their current visa type and simply transfer it to their new passport. A visa label can also be transferred to an eVisa, and a physical visa label can be obtained for an existing eVisa. The applicant's passport information can also be updated via the online service. The request must be submitted at least 10 days before departure for New Zealand. Individuals with a New Zealand eVisa must notify authorities if their passport information changes.
