Thank you for your email.  We will endeavour to get back to you within 5
working days.   If the answer to your question is below then please let us
know you no longer need a response by replying to this email with
'Question Answered' in the subject line:

 

 

When is my Ceremony

Invitations are generally sent 1 to 4 months after you have been approved.
This varies depending on when councils hold ceremonies and the number
waiting in each area.

 

Can a certificate be issued prior to attending a ceremony

No as you will become a NZ Citizen at the ceremony and the certificate is
presented as confirmation of your NZ Citizenship.

 

What happens if I missed the ceremony I was invited to

We will invite you to the next available ceremony. Depending on where you
are located the invitation could be sent within 1 to 5 months.

 

I have not been to a ceremony yet. Can I still travel on my overseas
passport?

You can continue to travel on your overseas passport as normal. Once you
attend a ceremony you become a NZ Citizen and your resident visa is
cancelled.

You may at this point have trouble returning to NZ on your overseas
passport.

 

 

I am a Citizen, how to I endorse my overseas passport with NZ Citizenship
