- Good to know
- Argentina IS on Immigration New Zealand's visa waiver list (confirmed directly on the official visa-waiver countries and territories page — this is not a case of exclusion). NZeTA required before travel (from NZD $17, per Immigration New Zealand) plus the International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy (IVL) of NZD $100, paid together when you request the NZeTA. NZeTA valid 2 years. Standard visa-waiver stay 'up to 3 months', capped overall at 6 months in any 12-month period.
