You still need travel insurance
Make sure you buy travel insurance before your visit, because we don’t cover:
- illness
- disrupted travel plans or emergency travel to get you back home
- injuries while in transit to or from New Zealand. This includes getting on or off a boat or plane
- travel around New Zealand in the craft you arrived in, eg a cruise ship.
