NEW ZEALAND 

If you are accepted into the pilot, you will be issued a voucher in the Managed Isolation Allocation System based on your 
flight number and arrival date. This voucher is required to board your fight to New Zealand even though you will not be 
going into a managed isolation facility. You will not be permitted to board your flight without showing your voucher.

  I understand that I will need to present my voucher when checking in for my flight to New Zealand.

  For Christchurch: The address is within 50km (by road) from Christchurch International Airport OR

boundary of Auckland Council.
 I will self-isolate alone or with the following approved pilot participants who are travelling with me:
 
 
 I understand and agree that no one else can visit, live or stay with me while I am in self-isolation.
  I will remain in my place of self-isolation for at least 14 days until I am authorised to leave by MIQ. I will not leave 
the property at any time unless in an emergency or where I am escorted by a person authorised by MIQ.

 The property is not a room or rooms or part of another dwelling (even if it is separated eg a separate storey).
 The property is not in an apartment block.
