Cook Adaları: yolculuktan önce bilinmesi gerekenler
En önemlisi
- Most international tourists receive a 31-day visitor permit on arrival without applying for a visa first; carry onward travel, funds and accommodation evidence.
- Carry NZD cash for the outer islands: card payments and ATMs are concentrated on Rarotonga and Aitutaki.
- Entry rules are separate from New Zealand. Check transit permission for any route through New Zealand or Australia.
Giriş ve vizeler
The tourism authority’s 26 October 2026 update grants NZ/Australian passport holders 90 days and other international passport holders 31 days on arrival. Immigration describes the international permit for stays of less than 31 days. No advance visa is required for qualifying short tourist visits; confirm the exact expiry at entry and apply separately for extensions.
Pasaport geçerliliği: International passports: at least 6 months beyond departure, per current tourism authority entry guidance.
Sınırda sorulabilecekler
- Show onward/return travel, sufficient funds and accommodation arrangements.
- Permits are subject to identity, character and health requirements; tourism permission does not authorise work.
