International Shooters coming to NZ
All pistol shooters coming to New Zealand for a competition need to complete the following documentation.
1. Visitors Firearms License and Permit to Import firearms (PDF)
You must include:
a copy of the ID and photo page of your passport
a copy of your Firearms Licence
Place to send this information to is:
Email address for scanned papers (preferred method):
info@pistolnz.org.nz
Postal:
Administration Officer
P O Box 50493
Porirua
New Zealand 5240
Fax (least preferred method):
+64 4 237 7519
Notes:
Both of these forms of identification are needed to support your application. You must have a temporary NZ firearms license to shoot in New Zealand even though you may not be bringing
firearms with you. The NZ Police do not communicate with you about whether there is an issue or not. However, Pistol NZ does advise the Airport Police of incoming shooters so they
can anticipate receiving the import permit from Police National HQ and be alerted to any that may be arriving on early or late flights.
2. MFAT Export of Strategic Goods form (PDF)
Changes in exportation laws now require approval for you to export your firearms (to yourself). You need to complete the form highlighted and include with it a copy of the Import
Permit you obtain from your own country. In the case of Australia we know this to be the B709a.
Place to send this information to is:
Export Controls Officer
Email:
exportcontrols@mfat.govt.nz
Fax:

Export Controls Officer
MFAT Disarmament Division
Private Bag 18901

New Zealand

Notes:
The Administration Officer for Pistol New Zealand does not handle these papers. You need to send them direct to the place indicated. Whilst there are some who would advise that this is
not required, we are advised by the NZ Police that it is and we do not want any of our people to provide the "test case". MFAT will contact the incoming shooter directly.
WE HOPE YOU HAVE A HAPPY, SAFE AND SUCCESSFUL TRIP TO NEW ZEALAND
