What The Fee Includes

Your payment covers the complete NZeTA application service: preparation and submission of your application, the New Zealand government fee, and the International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy (IVL) for travellers visiting for tourism.

The IVL funds the protection of New Zealand's natural environment and its tourism infrastructure. It is paid once and remains effective for the full 2-year validity of your eTA — Australian permanent residents are exempt from the IVL.

  • Application review and submission service
  • New Zealand government fee
  • IVL tourist levy (where applicable)
  • Status updates and support by email

Refunds

Cancel before your application is submitted to the government and a $35 cancellation fee per application applies. After submission, fees are non-refundable. Refunds take up to 20 business days — see the full Refund Policy.

Visa Fees — Frequently Asked Questions

How much does the New Zealand eTA cost?

The total fee depends on the processing speed you choose: Normal (48-72 hours), Emergency (24-48 hours) or Express (12-24 hours). The price shown at the top of this page is charged per traveller and includes the government fee and the IVL tourist levy where applicable.

Is the IVL included in the visa fee?

Yes. The International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy (IVL) is collected together with the application fee for travellers visiting for tourism. One IVL payment remains effective for the full 2-year validity of your eTA. Australian permanent residents are exempt from the IVL.

How can I pay for the NZeTA?

Payment is made online by credit or debit card as the final step of the application. Card details are processed securely by Stripe and are never stored on our servers.

Is the fee charged per person or per application?

The fee is charged per traveller. Every traveller, including children and infants, needs their own approved eTA, so a family application is charged once for each family member included.

Can I get a refund if I cancel?

If your application has not yet been submitted to the government for approval, you can cancel with a $35 cancellation fee per application. Once submitted, no refund can be made. Refunds take up to 20 business days to process. See our Refund Policy for the full rules.
