Here are a few ways you can reach us for consular assistance or other questions.
Call us if you need consular assistance. If your call is not an emergency, such as a death or arrest of a New Zealander overseas, you should call during New Zealand business hours, or get in touch with the local embassy.
New Zealand embassies, high commissions and consulates are there to help New Zealand citizens when they’re having difficulty overseas. If you need consular assistance during business hours in the country you have travelled to, contact an embassy.
Register your plans and contact details so we can send you travel updates about the places you're travelling to.
If you want to give us feedback or ask a non-urgent question, email the team and we'll respond during business hours.
