NZ Biofouling border rules for yachts & boats

Welcome to New Zealand
Before you get to New Zealand MPI will ask to see proof that you have:

• Cleaned the vessel hull and niche areas less than 30 days prior to arrival.
• Ask to see evidence of your records of biofouling maintenance, such as receipts from
  haul outs or date-stamped photos of your clean hull.​
