NZ Marine Customs update

Written by

NZ Marine, with the support of New Zealand Customs, has recently produced an updated Guide to the Temporary Import of Small Craft (PDF).

This guide is now available to Owners and Captains planning a visit to New Zealand.

The regulations ensure yachts can enjoy cruising New Zealand’s world-renowned coastline and sheltered harbours, islands, bays, and marinas, while accessing maintenance, refit and technical services.

NZ Marine Executive Director Peter Busfield commented, “We are delighted that Destination New Zealand continues to be a preferred choice for yachts cruising the South Pacific, and that our entry and temporary import procedures remain clear, practical, and user-friendly.”
