2021年4月19日起，新西兰将允许来自澳大利亚安全区域（safe zones）的旅客免隔离入境 ，此举也推动实现了澳洲和新西兰之间的双向免隔离旅行。具体来说，澳新两国的公民可以自由往来澳新之间免受隔离限制，而澳洲PR或者其他签证持有者，入境新西兰需要有NZeTA或者旅游签证。所有人免隔离入境的前提包括：
-
满足移民要求
-
已在澳洲或新西兰停留至少14天
-
COVID-19核酸检测非阳性；有过确诊病史的人士，需提供医疗机构出具的不再具有传染性的书面证明
-
已得到核酸检测结果
需要注意的是：
a. 务必时刻关注疫情的最新状况，并为出入境政策的实时变动做好准备。
b. 免隔离旅行仅针对商业航班，而对私人航班以及海上边界的边境限制依然存在。
Quarantine-free Travel
From 19 April 2021 quarantine-free travel will allow more movement between New Zealand and safe zones in Australia. Travellers coming from safe zones will not be required to enter managed isolation or quarantine on arrival in New Zealand.
WARNING
Border rules can change quickly. Travellers must prepare for disruption to their plans.
To be eligible for quarantine-free travel, travellers must:
- meet immigration requirements
- have spent 14 days in either Australia or New Zealand
- not had a positive COVID-19 test result, or, for those who tested positive, have written advice from a health practitioner declaring that they are no longer infectious
- not be awaiting the results of a COVID-19 test.
Australian and New Zealand citizens may travel between Australia and New Zealand without a visa or NZeTA.
Australia considered to be a Safe Travel Zone when applying online for a visa.
You will be able to apply for visas from 19 April 2021. You may apply for an NZeTA now.
Quarantine-free travel is only permitted on commercial airlines. Border restrictions remain in place for private flights and the maritime border.
Refer to the Australian Home Affairs website for the latest advice on requirements for individuals travelling from New Zealand to Australia.
If there is an alert level change in New Zealand
New Zealand has a 4-level COVID-19 alert system. Each alert level tells us what measures we need to take.
If alert levels change you must be prepared to stay where you are. This includes having enough money to support yourself should circumstances change. You might have to stay in a managed isolation or quarantine (MIQ) facility at your own expense.
Travellers should also monitor Government websites for changes.
