If your passport has been lost or stolen overseas, you should:

• obtain a police report, then
• decide whether to apply for a replacement passport or an Emergency Travel Document (an Emergency Travel Document will have a restricted validity dependent on travel circumstances).

Japan is a visa waiver country, therefore citizens of Japan don’t have to apply for a visa before travelling to New Zealand, if they are visiting for 3 months or less. They must have a ticket out of New Zealand to a country they have the right to enter and enough money for their stay. They must also be in good health and good character.

A visa must be applied for if the travel is for medical consultation or treatment.

The Embassy is closed on public holidays.
