  • New Zealand Passenger Arrival Cards to be phased out

    Customs New Zealand | Te Mana Ārai o Aotearoa has announced that Passenger Arrival Cards will be phased out, to be replaced by New Zealand Traveller Declaration | Whakapuakanga Tangata Haere ki Aotearoa cards by early 2024. There will be a transition period between 1 December 2023 and 31 March 2024, during which both Passenger Arrival Cards and New Zealand Traveller Declaration (NZTD) cards will be accepted. However, after 31 March 2024, only NZTD cards will be in circulation. These will be available through the NZTD mobile app or website. Paper forms will continue to be available for travellers who cannot complete the form online and will be accepted as a paper-based version of the digital NZTD at the air border. Passengers travelling by sea are not currently required to complete a digital declaration.

  • Announcing the recipients of the Welcome to New Zealand Scholarships

    The initiative was warmly received across Germany, Italy, and France, where it was promoted with the goal of encouraging students to experience the world-class education and unforgettable lifestyle that New Zealand has to offer.

    As part of the campaign, we offered four scholarships, each valued at 5,000 EUR to go toward tuition fees at New Zealand secondary schools or tertiary institutions. These scholarships were designed to support talented and passionate students on their journey to study abroad.  

    A key highlight of the campaign was our collaboration with Air New Zealand, who will generously sponsor return flights for the scholarship recipients. Their support played a pivotal role in making the dream of studying in New Zealand even more accessible for the winners.

    The scholarship attracted over 200 applications – with a majority coming from Germany, followed by Italy and France.  

    During the campaign period, there were 19,965 total views on the Welcome to New Zealand Scholarship page on the Study with New Zealand website.  

    The campaign generated 172 lead enquiries to New Zealand providers (118 enquiries from Germany, 47 enquiries from France and 7 from Italy). These enquiries are sent straight on to the education providers so they can directly engage with the prospective student on their study interests.   

    Meet the recipients 

    Germany 

    The scholarship winner from Germany is 16-year-old Manuel Fink, from Unterhaching (near Munich).  

    Manuel will be heading to Te Puke High School, where he’ll immerse himself in both the academic and cultural experience of studying in New Zealand.  

    A passionate advocate for New Zealand and its education system already, Manuel has his sights set on becoming a pilot — ideally flying for Air New Zealand one day! 

    Our tertiary scholarship recipient from Germany is currently finalising their enrolment, and we look forward to announcing their name once the process is complete. 

    Italy 

    Our Italian scholarship recipient is 16-year-old Lea Sagliaschi from Milan. Lea will be attending Selwyn College and is full of excitement for what she describes as a “once-in-a-lifetime adventure” in Aotearoa New Zealand. 

    Unfortunately, no recipient could be selected from France this year due to a lack of eligible applications — however, the ENZ Europe team remains committed to engaging with prospective students in the French market and looks forward to stronger participation in future campaigns. 

    ENZ Associate Director of Engagement Europe, Olga Elli, said the campaign raised great awareness of New Zealand’s education system in European priority markets and opened the door to new experiences and opportunities for winners. 

    “We look forward to building on this momentum and continuing to share the unique value of a New Zealand education with European students and partners,” she said.

  • Smart waste management idea sees students take out top spot in KIWI Challenge Indonesia finals

    The theme was “Reforming Indonesia’s mobility and smart cities using AI technology”. This year’s initiative hosted 59 teams from across 37 schools for a total of 269 student participants, the highest ever at the KIWI Challenge.  

    The groups were required to submit video entries to a judging panel made up of AUT academics and ENZ representatives, who reviewed the submissions and selected finalists. Participants received mentoring from a New Zealand university academic through the process and took part in workshops to refine their business plans. They were given a taste of New Zealand’s learning environment along the way and built an understanding of our tertiary education offering for future planning.  

    The participating academic was Dr Taghreed Hikmet from AUT, a Senior Lecturer in International Business, Strategy, and Entrepreneurship who has expertise in smart cities and is passionate about mentoring and inspiring young future leaders. 

    The finals were held on Saturday 25th November, where six shortlisted teams from across Indonesia presented their ideas to a panel of judges made up of Dr Hikmet (AUT), Ben Burrowes (ENZ’s Regional Director, Asia), and Indonesia Embassy staff (representing Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade), Hira Trisnoputri.  

    UniSadhuGuna International College took first place with their ‘Greenlight’ business idea, a smart waste management enterprise which aims to create a sustainable waste management system that actively involves households, businesses, and the government. UniSadhuGuna International College received a voucher worth 10,000,000 Indonesian Rupiah for winning the competition.  

    Winners! The team from UniSadhuGuna international College took out first place with their ‘Greenlight’ business idea.

    Dr Hikmet reflected on the KIWI Challenge warmly. “It has been truly rewarding, observing the outstanding progress and growth in the finalists' projects, presentations, and overall confidence.  

    "It was a privilege to engage with high school students across Indonesia, contributing to the vibrant entrepreneurial spirit fostered by the competition. Excitement brews within me for the potential of future collaborations and initiatives,” Dr Hikmet concluded.  

    Following the finals, Ben Burrowes and Dr Taghreed Hikmet participated in an Instagram Live session with KOMPAS TV, the leading media network in Indonesia. This Instagram Live generated a total of 3.4k views and the highest number of people watching online was 348. You can watch the Instagram Live here: Part 1 and Part 2.
