Keep Yourself Safe While Travelling to New Zealand

Tips for Safe Travel

 

In the 14 days before you leave for New Zealand
  • Avoid going to high-risk events like parties, social gatherings or crowded places.
  • Avoid contact with people who have COVID-19 or who are contacts of people with COVID-19.
  • Stay home as much as possible to limit your contact with other people.
  • Wash and dry your hands often, cough into your elbow and avoid touching your face.
  • Keep your distance from people you do not know.
  • Wear a face covering when you cannot keep your distance.

 

Whilst travelling
  • Wash and dry your hands often, cough into your elbow and avoid touching your face.
  • Keep your distance from people you do not know.
  • Wear a face covering at all times.

 

Once you arrive, face coverings legally must be worn:
  • on all public transport to, from and through Auckland — including on long-distance bus and train journeys, as well as Auckland ferries.
  • on domestic flights throughout New Zealand.
  • by Auckland taxi and ride-share drivers — while it’s not compulsory for passengers to wear them, we strongly encourage you to.
  • however, children under 12 and students on school buses do not need to wear a face covering.
